Enter Button
After entering the button strokes, push this button to enter the password into the LifeBook notebook.
Passwords
The user and supervisor password may be set on this notebook. A supervisor password is typically the
same for all LifeBook notebooks in a working group, office, or company to allow for system management.
Individual LifeBook notebooks in a group environment should not use a common password. A password
consists of one to five button strokes plus the [Enter] button. A valid stroke consists of pushing one or up
to four buttons simultaneously. The following are valid button strokes:
• Pushing [4] by itself
• Pushing [2] and [3] at the same time
• Pushing [1], [2], and [4] at the same time
• Pushing [1], [2], [3], and [4] at the same time
The following are valid passwords. The numbers within braces ({ }) are button strokes using more than
one button.
• {[2]+[3]}, [1], [enter]
• [4], [enter]
• {[1]+[3]}, {[2]+[3]+[4]}, [1], [4], [2], [enter]
Setting Passwords
When shipped from the factory, no passwords are set. You have a choice of having no password or setting
supervisor and user passwords. You must set the supervisor password before the user password.
THE PURPOSE OF SUPERVISOR PASSWORD IS TO BE ABLE TO BYPASS THE USER PASSWORD IN CASE THE
USER PASSWORD IS FORGOTTEN. THE SUPERVISOR PASSWORD ALONE WILL NOT LOCK THE SYSTEM. YOU
MUST SET BOTH THE SUPERVISOR AND USER PASSWORDS FOR THE SECURITY PANEL TO WORK.
