Operating Basics If the fingerprint authentication process fails you will need to log into Windows using the appropriate username and password. In addition, you should use this manual login process if fingerprint authentication fails for three consecutive tries - a warning message will be displayed when authentication is not normal or is not successful within a fixed duration. Fingerprint Power-on Security General The fingerprint authentication system can be used to replace the keyboard based password authentication system that is used when the computer is turned on. If you do not want to use the fingerprint authentication system for password authentication when the computer is turned on, but instead prefer to use the keyboard entry method instead, simply press the BACK SPACE key when the Fingerprint Power-on Security screen is displayed. Using this process will switch the password input screen across to the keyboard based entry screen. ■ You must ensure that you use the TOSHIBA Password Utility to register a User Password before using the Fingerprint Power-on Security and its extended function to allow fingerprints to be used to access the computer when it is turned on. ■ If the fingerprint authentication process fails five times, a preset time limit is exceeded, or you press the BACK SPACE key, [Password =] will be displayed on the screen and you will have to enter either the User Password or Supervisor Password manually in order to start the computer. ■ When swiping your finger, please ensure that you do it slowly and at a constant speed. If you find that this does not improve the authentication rate, you should try to adjust the speed at which the finger is swiped. ■ If there are any changes in the environment or settings related to authorization, you will be required to provide authorization information such as a User Password (and, if applicable, the HDD(Hard Disk Drive) password). How to Enable Fingerprint Power-on Security Settings It is necessary to first enroll your fingerprint with the Protector Suite QL application prior to enabling and configuring the Fingerprint Power-on Security System. You should check that your fingerprint is enrolled before configuring the settings (please refer to the Manual for Fingerprint Registration/Enrollment for further instructions). 1. Swipe your finger across the fingerprint sensor. 2. MENU will appear in the lower right corner of the screen. Swipe your finger on the fingerprint sensor and then select Control Center from the items presented in this menu. User's Manual 4-8
