Setting One-Time-Use Recovery PINs

Using a One-Time-Use Recovery PIN

Gives the Admin the ability to set Recovery PINs that will allow a User to access data on the

Padlock DT in the event of a forgotten PIN by creating a new state of User Forced Enrollment

in which a new User PIN can be established without wiping any data off of the drive. The

Admin can establish up to four one-time-use Recovery PINs. Once a Recovery PIN has

been used to access the drive, it will no longer be available. NOTE: The Recovery PIN will not

unlock the device, but will place the drive into a User Forced Enrollment state, where the User

can then establish a new User PIN and then access the drive’s data.

1. Enter the Admin mode. (Hold + 0 for ve seconds. With the RED LED blinking, enter the

Admin PIN and press the button.) The BLUE LED will now glow steadily.

2. Press the + 8 buttons. The GREEN LED will blink three times by itself, and then will be

joined by a steady BLUE LED.

3. Enter the Recovery PIN and press the button. If PIN is accepted, the GREEN LED will blink

three times.

4. Repeat by entering that same Recovery PIN and pressing the button again. If PIN is

accepted for the nal time, the GREEN LED will blink three times and the Padlock DT will then

return to the Admin mode indicated by a steady BLUE LED.

5. To add more Recovery PINs, repeat steps 2-4. When nished, press the CANCEL button to

return drive to its Standby mode.

Remember that using a Recovery PIN to set the Padlock DT into User Forced Enrollment

renders that Recovery PIN spent / unavailable for future use.

1. With the drive in Standby mode, press and hold the + 7 buttons together for ve seconds

and release once the RED LED starts blinking.

2. Enter a recovery PIN (from Admin) and press the button. The GREEN LED will blink three

times by itself, and then will be joined by a steady BLUE LED indicating the drive is in User

Forced Enrollment mode.

3. Enter a new User PIN and press the button. The GREEN LED will blink three times if

accepted.

4. Re-enter that same new User PIN and press the button again to verify it. If accepted, the

GREEN LED will blink three times and then the Padlock DT will return to its Standby state,

indicated by the RED LED glowing steadily. The contents of this drive will now be accessible

using this new User PIN.
