8.9 Security 

The Security option allows you to setup how secure you want your  @Tab to be.  You 
may want to set some form of automatic screen lock to prevent unauthorized access. 
If a screen lock has been set, the screen locks when your tablet's display goes to sleep. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Screen Lock 

To adjust your tablet's lock settings: 

1.

 

Touch 

Screen lock.

 

2.

 

Touch the type of lock you want and follow the onscreen instructions. 

If you have previously set a lock, you must enter the pattern, PIN, or password to 
unlock the lock settings before you can make any changes. 

You can choose among these lock options, listed in approximate order of strength: 

 

Slide

 

Provides no protection, but lets you get to the Home screen quickly, or 
open Camera and start taking pictures immediately. 

 

Pattern

 

Let’s you draw a simple pattern with your finger to unlock the tablet. 

PIN

 

Requires four or more numbers. Longer PINs tend to be more secure. 

Password 

Requires  four  or  more  letters  or  numbers.  This  is  the  most  secure 
option, as long as you create a strong password. 

Note: 

If you forget your Pattern / PIN / Password, the only way to gain access to the 

device  is  via  a  firmware  update.  This  requires  a  PC  running  Windows  and  the  latest 
firmware,  which  can  be  downloaded  from  the  @Tab  website 

www.theattab.com.

 

Please follow the procedure outlined in the firmware update document on the site.
