Secure Mode
Secure mode secures the system against unauthorized use. Secure
mode inhibits keyboard and mouse input, and disables the power
switch and reset button. Secure mode takes effect when the
keyboard and mouse remain inactive for an amount of time that you
determine. You can gain access to the system only after you enter
the correct user password.
Note: You must set a user password before you can enable secure
mode.
Refer to the following table for information on the options available
for the secure mode.
