3.11 Supervisor / User Password
The “SUPERVISOR/USER PASSWORD” utility sets the password. The SBC is shipped with
the password disabled. If you want to change the password, you must first enter the current
password, then at the prompt -- enter your new password. The password is case sensitive, and
can be up to 8 alphanumeric characters. Press <Enter> after you have finished typing in the
password. At the next prompt, confirm the new password by re-typing it and pressing <Enter>
again. When you are done, the screen automatically reverts to the main screen. Remember that
when you use this feature, the “Security Option” line in BIOS FEATURES SETUP will
determine when entering the password will be required.
To disable the password
, press the <Enter> key instead of entering a new password when the
“Enter Password” in the dialog box appears. A message will appear confirming that the
password is disabled.
If you have set both supervisor and user password, only the supervisor password allows you to
enter the BIOS SETUP PROGRAM.
Note : If you forget your password, the only way to solve this problem is to discharge the
CMOS memory.
