SecurityEasy
There are two ways to prevent unauthorized entry or use of the system.
System Password
Set system password in CMOS setup menu “PASSWORD SETTING”
item(main menu) , and set the “password setting” item(located in “BIOS
FEATURES SETUP”) as “System”. Then the BIOS requires you to enter the
password before you can boot the system or enter the CMOS Setup. If the
“password setting” is set as “Setup”, the BIOS only requires you to enter the
password before you can enter the CMOS setup menu.
SecurityEasy
The Brilliant IV provides additional SecurityEasy function to protect the
system from unauthorized entry or use.
If the Lock function is enabled, there are two ways to enter LOCK status.
•
Push once the button connected to the two-pin header SLEEP. If the Lock
function is disabled, this button is used as SLEEP button.
•
When “Keyboard Inactive Timer” is counted to the preset value- from 1
minute to 1hour.
In the LOCK status, the power switch and reset buttons are unresponsive,
PS/2 mouse is locked, and the Keyboard is locked except for the
Administrative Password entering. You can preset the Video as blank in the
LOCK status.
The only way to exit the LOCK status is to enter the Administrative
Password with the keyboard. It means if you set the Lock function as enabled,
you must also set the Administrative Password together.
