Option Settings • On - If the computer cover is opened, the setting changes to Detected, and the following alert message displays during the boot routine at the next computer start-up: Alert! Cover was previously removed. To reset the Detected setting, enter system setup (see "Entering System Setup" on page 280). In the Chassis Intrusion option, press the left- or right-arrow key to select Reset, and then choose On, OnSilent, or Off. • On-Silent (default setting) - If the computer cover is opened, the setting changes to Detected. No alert message appears during the boot sequence at the next computer start-up. • Off - No intrusion monitoring occurs and no messages appear. Padlock Ring and Security Cable Slot Use one of the following methods to secure your computer: • Use a padlock alone or a padlock and looped security cable with the padlock ring.
