USING MY DEVICE
SETTING UP THE DEVICE
Devices managed by IronKey™ EMS must be set up using a Windows or Mac operating system. Once set up,
you can use your device on Windows, Mac, or Linux systems. The setup process is the same for systems
running a Microsoft Windows or Mac operating system.
To set up the device
1.
Plug the USB cable into the device and insert the cable into your computer’s USB port. The
Device Setup
screen appears.
The setup software runs automatically from the public volume. This screen may not appear if your com-
puter does not allow devices to autorun. You can start it manually by:
•
Windows:
Opening the
Unlocker
drive in
This PC
and double-clicking the
Unlocker.exe
file.
•
Mac:
Opening the
Unlocker
drive in
Finder
and then opening the
Unlocker
application.
You can
install the Auto-Launch Assistant, so that the Unlocker will automatically open when you plug in a
device. See “Installing the Auto-Launch Assistant (Mac only)” on page 14.
2.
Type or paste the
Activation Code
. You should have received the code in an email message sent from
your Administrator.
3.
Select a default language preference, agree to the end-user license agreement, and then click
Activate
.
By default, device software will use the same language as your computer’s operating system.
4.
Type a device password and confirm it, and then click
Continue
.
Your password is case-sensitive and must comply with the password policy set by the administrator.
5.
If you are prompted to provide an email address for an online account, enter it now and click

.
Your online account is required to reset your device password.
6.
A message prompt will appear indicating that an email has been sent to you. Follow the instructions in the
email to set up your online account; this includes choosing and answering a “secret question”. The secret
question will be used to verify your identity if you have to reset your password.
7.
Once you have set up your online account, click
OK
in the message prompt to proceed with the device
setup.
8.
On the
Device Setup
screen, select the file system for the secure volume. Mac and Linux operating sys-
tems do not support an NTFS file system.
9.
Click
Continue
. The device initializes.
During this process, it generates the AES encryption key, creates the file system for the secure volume,
and copies secure applications and files to the secure volume.
When the initialization is complete, the DataLocker Control Panel appears. Your device is now ready to
protect your data and can be used on a Windows, Mac or Linux computer. Some policies set by the
administrator may restrict use of the device to systems running only Windows and Mac.
