The computer starts after the proper password is entered.

erases the password. Wait for the beeps. Power the system off and move the
jumper back to its original position.
5. Remind the user to enter a new password when service is complete.

Utility program. If the administrator password is activated, and you do not enter
the administrator password, the configuration can be viewed but not changed.
