Setting Up an Automatic Lock State
When you setup an automatic lock on your device, it requires a
password be entered prior to returning to normal operation.
When a password is set up, the device can be locked
immediately upon command, configured to lock after a specified
period of inactivity, or after the LCD blanks out.
1. From the Today screen, touch Start > Settings.
2. Touch the Personal tab and tap Lock ( ).
3. Set up a timeout value by touching the Prompt if device
unused for field then use the drop-down list to select a
value (amount of unused time required before you are
prompted for a password if the device becomes idle).
Enabling this option activates the remaining fields.
4. Touch the Password type field and enter the desired
information:
• Simple PIN: must be at least four characters in length and cannot
contain a simple sequence such as 0000, 1111, or 1234.
• Strong alphanumeric: must be at least seven characters in length
and must contain at least one character from each of the following
categories: uppercase/lowercase letters, numerals, and symbols.
Examples of strong alphanumeric passwords are sb?8A!3 and
%$VH5hW.
5. Touch the Password field then use the QWERTY keyboard
to enter the desired password.
6. Touch the Confirm password field then use the QWERTY
keyboard to re-enter the same password.
7. Touch to save your password.
8. Touch Yes to confirm your selection.

touch the onscreen password filed, use the QWERTY keyboard to enter
your password, then touch Unlock before you can make any updates or
changes.
