Standalone Logins
Requesting Standalone Logins
Standalone mode allows the Secure Volume of the DL4 to be accessed by any computer that has
support for removable storage without running the Windows Unlocker application. Standalone
mode is controlled by a policy that is set by your SafeConsole administrator. If this mode is not
available, please contact them to enable this feature. SafeConsole administrators will define the
maximum allowed times your DL4 can be unlocked in Standalone mode before the device needs
to be returned to a Windows computer to check-in.
To request Standalone logins, perform the following steps on a workstation that has a valid con-
nection to the SafeConsole server:
1. Log into your DL4 and tap the
Connect
button. Your DL4 will show a “Waiting. . . ” prompt.
2. Select the option Unlocker.exe inside of the Unlocker partition that can be found in File Ex-
plorer.
3. Click the Unlock button shown on the DataLocker Control Panel.
4. On the DL4 Control Panel, click the
2
-icon to open up settings.
5. Select the Standalone tab.
6. Select the reason for the request or enter a custom reason. This information will be sent to the
SafeConsole administrator.
7. Click the
Request
button. You will receive the maximum number allowed.
