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.
