Security preferences
Your handheld comes with a security feature so that unauthorized users cannot
view the entries you want to protect. Use the security feature to do the following:
■ Lock and turn off your handheld so that it does not operate until you enter the
correct password.
■ Mask all records that you mark as private so that the information appears
grayed out.
■ Hide all records that you mark as private so they do not appear on any screen.
■ Encrypt records.
You can mask and hide private records with or without a password. Without a
password, private records are hidden or masked until you set the Security
preference to show them. With a password, you must enter the password to view
the private entries.
Assigning a password
You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock your
handheld. You can mask the password from accidental viewing. To quickly log in,
you can also assign a short, quick password that works only at your first login
attempt and for a limited amount of time. You can set the amount of time you need
to enter the quick password.
