Setting up users and passwords
You can use different types of user accounts and passwords to create various levels of
protection for computer and its data, depending on the level of security that you need.

Setting a BIOS password
You can use a BIOS password to secure the basic input/output system of the tablet.
WARNING: Read this section carefully to understand the implications of creating a BIOS
system password. If you forget the password, you will not be able to access the BIOS. If this
happens, contact Motion Computing Technical Support at

number in System Properties.
To find the serial number
1. In Control Panel, tap the System and Security category, then tap System.

“S/N=.”
To set a BIOS password
1. Start the system. When the Motion Computing splash screen appears, tap the screen
with the pen. On the TrustedCore menu, tap Password Options. If you miss the splash
screen, restart the computer and try again.
2. In the Password Options window, enter a password using the on-screen keyboard. Enter
the password again to confirm it.
3. Do one of the following:
• If you want to require a password every time the computer starts, select the Enable
password on boot option.
• If you want to require a password only to start the BIOS, clear the Enable password
on boot option.
4. Tap OK.
To clear the password, leave the password fields blank, then tap OK.
