Note: To use the remote mode feature for booting unattended devices, you must

enable the unattended start mode. See the “System Power Control Menu” on
page 48
for instructions on enabling the unattended start mode, which allows the
system unit to turn on whenever ac power is applied to the system (instead of
having the system unit wait for the power button to be pushed).

Privileged-Access Password

The privileged-access password protects against the unauthorized starting of the
system programs. Select the Set icon to set and verify the privileged-access password.

When you select the Set icon, a screen with 8 empty boxes displays. Type your
password in these boxes. You can use any combination of up to eight characters (A–Z,
a–z, and 0–9) for your password. As you type a character, a key displays in the box.

Press Enter when you are finished; you must type the password again for verification.
