You can perform certain smart card related security functions with DISKCRYPT M100.
These functions are only available before authentication. The following functions are
available.

Smart card security and Administrative functions must be performed carefully as
they cause changes in smart cards and associated PIN. Please read the following
instructions carefully and follow them when performing Administrative functions.
4.1 Change Smart Card PIN
You can change your 8-digit smart card PIN with DISKCRYPT M100. It is
recommended that you change the default factory PIN to one that only you know.
Follow these steps to change your 8-digit smart card PIN.
1. Insert smart card into DISKCRYPT M100. The keypad should turn on to allow key
entry.
2. Press the CHANGE PIN button, followed by the 1’ button.
3. Press ENTER. The STATUS LED will blink three times.
4. Enter the current 8-digit smart card PIN and press ENTER. The STATUS LED
blinks twice.
5. Enter the new 8-digit smart card PIN and press ENTER. The STATUS LED
blinks twice.
6. Repeat the new 8-digit smart card PIN and press ENTER. While the PIN
change process is taking place, the STATUS LED will continue to blink.
DISKCRYPT M100 will provide three ‘beep’ sounds to indicate that this operation
is successful.
Upon a successful PIN change, DISKCRYPT M100 will proceed to connect the drive. If the
PIN change is not successful, the ERROR LED will blink continuously.
Note:
Smart card PIN are specific to the physical smart card. Please be aware that you
may have different PIN for each of the two included smart cards.
The user is responsible to remember his/her smart card PIN. The smart card will
be locked after 8 consecutive incorrect PIN attempts. Due to security
implementation, it is not possible to unlock the smart card PIN.
DISKCRYPT M100 only accepts 8-digit PIN. If a shorter or longer PIN is entered,
the ERROR LED will blink continuously. Press the ESC button to restart the
authentication process again. You will need to restart the entire PIN Change
process from step 2.
Pressing the ESC button restarts the entire authentication process.
