Getting to Know Your LifeBook
Figure 2-22 LifeBook Series Security Application Panel
LifeBook Security
Application Panel
A unique feature of your LifeBook Series notebook is the
Security Application Panel that allows you to secure your
notebook from unauthorized use. The Security Applica-
tion Panel also allows you to launch applications with a
touch of a button when your system is on.
If the security system is activated, upon starting your
notebook or resuming from suspend mode the security
system requires you to enter a password code using the
buttons on the Security Application Panel. After entering
a correct password, your notebook resumes system
operation. (Figure 2-22)
SETUP YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY PANEL
When you receive your LifeBook, the security panel
application is pre-installed without any passwords.
The following sections will provide detailed information
on your security panel, how to set, change or
remove passwords.

PASSWORDS
The user and supervisor password may be set on this
notebook. A supervisor password is typically the same
for all notebooks in a working group, office, or company
to allow for system management. Individual notebooks
in a group environment should not use a common pass-
word. 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]
