5.2 Activating/deactivating of the lock-out mode
(Device PIN needed)
In the activated lock-out mode access to the data is instantly stopped
if the smart card is removed.
The HS256S is preset with active lock-out mode. The “STATUS“- LED illuminates
red during the access mode.
The user can deactivate this feature in particular situations. This must be done
when only one smart card has access to many different storage devices that are
supposed to be unlocked at the same time with the same cryptographic key. When
the lock-out mode is deactivated the “STATUS“-LED illuminates green during the
access mode.
Follow these steps to activate/deactivate the lock-out mode:
1) Insert the smart card into the DIGITTRADE HS256S.
Paying attention that the “STATUS“-LED flashes once.
Note: If the “ ERROR“-LED illuminates after inserting the smart card, please initiali-
se the smart card as described in chapter 5.4.
2) Press the “ADMIN“-button and afterwards “1“.
3) Press “ENTER“. The “STATUS“-LED flashes three times.
4) Type in your 8-digit device PIN and press “ENTER“.
If the PIN was entered correctly the “STATUS“-LED flashes three times and
you will hear two beeps.
5) The lock-out mode is now activated/deactivated. The “STATUS“-LED
illuminates red if the mode is activated and green if it is deactivated.
6) Disconnect the USB connection to the DIGITTRADE HS256S and reconnect to
exit this feature.
Note: The lock-out mode is preset activated. Do not remove the smart card from
the DIGITTRADE HS256S in this mode, as it can lead to data loss.
