one-time password
One-time passwords (OTPs) combine with PINs to create passcodes when
PINs are required. When PINs are not required, OTPs serve as the user
passcode. Client software token applications generate OTPs, or the HOTPin
server can send OTPs through a token provider. OTPs are also referred to
as token codes.

OTP
One-time password; also referred to as a token code.
OTP look ahead value
The setting that establishes a window of valid token codes available for
authentication (Settings|General|Authentication).
passcode
In two-factor authentication, the passcode is the combination of a user’s
PIN and a one-time password (token code). In single-factor authentication,
the token code serves as the passcode.
passphrase
A security feature that encrypts the token key used by HOTPin client
software. A passphrase has two possible functions: it can encrypt the token
key configuration file or it can be required by a system administrator to force
a user to encrypt access to the token once imported to client software.
PIN
A user-defined Personal Identification Number that is combined with a one-
time password (token code) to create a passcode. The PIN requirement is
an optional setting that is configured on HOTPin’s Settings page.
