Disabling the password function
If you do not want to use a power-on password anymore, you can
disable the password function. However, if you want to use the
password function later, your old password is still stored as the
current password. If you want to be able to easily set a password
later, follow the instructions in “Disabling an Existing
Password,” above.
To disable the password function, follow the instructions under
“Changing the Jumper Settings” in Chapter 5 to change the
setting of jumper JP13 to position A.

password function by setting jumper JP13 to position A.
2. Insert the Reference diskette in drive A and turn on the
computer. You do not see the key prompt.
3. When the Operation Menu appears, highlight Setup
and press
Enter.
Then follow the instructions under
“Setting the Power-on Password” in Chapter 2 to enter a
new password. (If you want to enable network server mode,
