Using the FailSafe key
If you enable the Hood Lock and cannot enter your password to disable it, you must have a FailSafe
key to open the workstation side access panel. The FailSafe key is required in any of the following
circumstances:
●
Power outage
●
Startup failure
●
PC component failure (such as a processor or power supply)
●
Forgotten password
CAUTION:
The side access panel FailSafe key is a specialized tool available from HP. Be sure to
order the key from HP in advance so it is available when you need it.
To obtain the FailSafe Key, contact HP post sales support by telephone at: 1-800–hp-invent.
Cable lock (optional)
To prevent theft, the rear chassis panel of your workstation accommodates a keyed cable lock. This
cable lock attaches to the chassis and secures it to the work area.
Security lock (Padlock loop) (optional)
The rear chassis panel of your workstation provides a padlock loop. A padlock can be attached in this
loop to prevent workstation access panel removal.
Universal chassis clamp lock (optional)
The universal chassis clamp lock secures the access panel to the chassis using a screw-type
attachment. A built in key lock prevents access to the securing screw. In addition, cables can be added
to the universal chassis clamp lock to secure workstation peripherals, and to secure the workstation to
the work area.
Fault notification and recovery
Fault notification and recovery features combine innovative hardware and software technology to
prevent the loss of critical data and minimize unplanned downtime.
If the workstation is connected to a network that is managed by HP Client Manager Software, the
computer sends a fault notice to the network management application. With HP Client Manager
Software, you can also remotely schedule diagnostics to automatically run on all managed PCs and
create a summary report of failed tests.
