Change the Screen Lock to Protect the Computer
After you start using the computer, you should change the screen lock to prevent
unauthorized persons from accessing the computer after the screen lock activates,
unless they input the correct password, PIN, or pattern.
The recommended setting for the Screen Lock is to enable a Password lock. Use a
strong password value (e.g., include numbers, characters, special characters, and
mixed character case).
1. Swipe up from the bottom of the Home screen to access all apps.
2. Tap Settings > Security > Screen lock.
3. Choose one of the following options:
•None
• Swipe
• Pattern
•PIN
•Password
4. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the setup.
5. Exit the Settings app.
Set Up Face Unlock
The face unlock feature is initially available as trial version for evaluation. After the
evaluation period expires, you need to purchase a license to use face unlock.
Contact a Honeywell representative for licensing information.
Face unlock allows you to unlock the computer in sleep mode by using facial
recognition with the front camera. A series of on-screen prompts guide you
through the process of capturing a face image that you can use to unlock the
computer.
Note: When face unlock is enabled, you must also have a backup method to unlock the
computer, such as PIN, pattern, or password. After the evaluation period expires for
face unlock, the feature is unavailable and the device can be unlocked only with the
backup method (PIN, pattern, or password).
1. Swipe up from the bottom of the Home screen to access all apps.
2. Tap Settings > Security > Face Unlock.
3. If you have not set up a screen lock, you will be prompted to add a backup
method for unlocking the computer: PIN, pattern, or password.
4. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the setup.
