Menu Item 1: Enter New System Pass Key

Loading the System Pass Key requires a 16 character password. If more or less characters are
entered than required, the system will notify the user of the error and prompt to re-enter the
password. The password must be verified on the second entry. To provide a strong password, a
mix of alpha characters (upper and lower case) and numeric characters must be used. The site
administrator determines the type of strong password to be entered. The system will not check
for a mandatory type or set of characters.

Menu Item 2: Save Pass Key to Diskette

Menu item 2 is used for saving the Pass Key in an encrypted file on a diskette. The Master and
Pass Keys cannot be saved on the same diskette. Therefore, two diskettes are required for the
save process. Ensure that the diskette is clearly labeled ‘Pass Key’ as it cannot be interchanged
with the Master Key diskette.

Saving the Master Key and Pass Key diskettes will allow the administrator a full recovery if
the system is corrupted. The administrator does not have to remember the two passwords.
However, if one or both of the diskettes are bad, the administrators must have the means to
recover by re-entering the passwords from another means.
Note: It is not possible to save the Pass Key to diskette after exiting the program.

After creating and saving the Pass Key, the user must exit and another user with permission
level 10 must log in and run security.bin to enter the Master Key.

Menu Item 3: Enter New System Master Key

Loading the System Master Key requires a 20 to 28 character password. If more or less
characters are entered than required, the system will notify the user of the error and prompt to
re-enter the password. The password must be verified on the second entry. To provide a strong
password, a mix of alpha characters (upper and lower case) and numeric characters must be
used. The site administrator determines the type of strong password to be entered. The system
will not check for a mandatory type or set of characters.
