Setting Console Security
OSCAR enables you to set security on your local port console. You can establish a
screen saver mode that engages after your console remains unused for a specified
Inactivity Time. Once engaged, your console will remain locked until you press any
key or move the mouse. You will then need to type in your password to continue.
Use the Security dialog box to lock your console with password protection, set
or change your password and enable the screen saver.
NOTE: If a password has been previously set, you will have to enter the password before you
can access the Security dialog box.
To access the Security dialog box:
1. If OSCAR is not open, press Print Screen. The Main dialog box will appear.
2. Click Setup - Security. The Security dialog box appears.
