Using the System Setup Program
57
Operating With a Setup Password Enabled
If
Setup Password
is set to
Enabled
, you must enter the correct setup
password before you can modify most of the System Setup options. When
you start the System Setup program, the program prompts you to enter a
password.
If you do not enter the correct password in three attempts, the system lets you
view, but not modify, the System Setup screens—with the following
exception: If
System Password
is not set to
Enabled
and is not locked through
the
Password Status
option, you can assign a system password (however, you
cannot disable or change an existing system password).
NOTE:
You can use the
Password Status
option in conjunction with the
Setup
Password
option to protect the system password from unauthorized changes.
Deleting or Changing an Existing Setup Password
1
Enter the System Setup program and select the
System Security
option.
2
Highlight the
Setup Password
option, press <Enter> to access the setup
password window, and press <Enter> twice to clear the existing setup
password.
The setting changes to
Not Enabled
.

If you want to assign a new setup password, perform the steps in "Assigning
a Setup Password" on page 56.
