Remote Mode: The remote mode, when enabled, allows the system to start from
the defined boot device. This mode is ideal for network servers and other computers
that operate unattended. You
must set a power-on password before you can enable
the remote mode. When the remote mode is set, the icon changes to Remote
<On>.
If you remove the power-on password, the remote mode is automatically reset, and
the icon returns to Remote <Off>.
Privileged-Access Password: The privileged-access password protects against the
unauthorized starting of the system programs.
When you select the Entry icon, a screen with 8 empty boxes appears. Type your
password in these boxes. You can use any combination of up to eight characters
(A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for your password. As you type a character, a key appears in
the box.
Press Enter when you are finished; you are required to type the password again for
verification.
If you make a mistake, press the Esc key and start again.
