Epson ActionNote - Manual (Page 46)

If you enable the System password, you must enter it each time
you turn on or reset your computer. (Resetting the computer is
described later in this chapter.) The computer prompts you for
the password after it completes its power-on diagnostics.
If you enable the SETUP password, you must enter it before
you can use the SETUP program. The computer prompts you
for the password after you press to start SETUP.
Typing the Password
You see a box with this prompt when the password feature is
active:
Enter Password:
Type the correct password and press To protect your
password, the screen does not display the characters you type.
If you do not type the correct password, the system beeps and
repeats the password prompt. Try typing the password again.
The computer allows you three tries to enter it correctly. After
the third incorrect attempt, the system locks up and you see the
following message:
Password check failed - system halted
You must reset to try again.
Note
If you want to change your current password or disable the
password function, you need to use the SETUP program. See
Chapter 2 for instructions. If you forget your password, call
the Epson Connection at 1-800-922-8911 for assistance.
