4.7 Setting a security password
There are many situations where unrestricted access to corporate file servers or
sensitive information needs to be controlled. In such circumstances, the LINDY CPU
Switch Multiscreen can be locked away in a room or secure cabinet and controlled
remotely. In this mode typing the keyboard hotkeys together with 'L' will blank the
screen, disconnect the keyboard and mouse from all of the computers and display
‘P’ on the LINDY CPU Switch Multiscreen display. Control can only be regained by
typing the correct password on the keyboard.
To set the password in configure mode, first type ‘P’ then (return). The display on
LINDY CPU Switch Multiscreen will change to show ‘=' and you can then type your
password. The password is not case sensitive and can be any combination of key
strokes, including the function keys, but excluding the (ctrl), (alt), (shift) and (return)
keys. When you have typed in your password type (return) to register it in the stored
memory. Do not worry if you type the password incorrectly, you can always re-enter
configure mode and set the password again. If you have lost the password and the
LINDY CPU Switch Multiscreen is locked, the unit may be unlocked by powering
down the LINDY CPU Switch Multiscreen, entering configure mode at power on (see
section 2.6), and performing a complete reset using the F8 function.
NOTE - The password consists of a combination of key strokes rather like the code
to a safe. The key strokes are not case sensitive and can include all the keys on the
keyboard (except ctrl, alt, shift and enter). Consequently the following 'password'
would be valid:
R)5('
