Using The Admin (Administrator) Menu; Change Password; Set User - Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 80 ES Manual Del Usuario

The Admin menu has various options and features spread over three screens as previously shown. The
Admin menu helps you configure various functions that VP80ES offers, which are explained in the
sections below.

Change Password

This option allows Admin to change the current Admin password. When setting up a drive, Admin creates
a password, and this is where that password can be changed.
Follow these steps to change the VP80ES Admin password.
1. From the Admin menu, tap CHANGE PASSWORD.
2. Enter the New Password and tap the Enter key.
3. You can tap the Eye button to display the password you are entering and see if there are
typos. If you entered the wrong key, you can tap on the Backspace button to erase it.
4. Re-enter the password to confirm and tap the Enter key. You must confirm using the same
password you entered in Step 2.
5. Upon successful completion, the drive defaults to page 1 of the Admin menu.
NOTE: The initial password entry screen will display the password and not show the Eye button,
but the Eye button will be shown on the Confirm Password screen. If you entered this screen
accidentally or do not wish to change the password, tap the Enter key to exit this screen
and return to the previous menu.

Set User

This allows Admin to either ENABLE or DISABLE a User password. When a User password is created,
your VP80ES will show a login selection screen upon the next VP80ES connection. Kingston
recommends you always Set User as this allows you to have two passwords to access your drive.
If USER is selected upon login, your VP80ES will force the User to create a user unlock password. The
user will use this pass word to unlock the drive. The VP80ES User has a limited feature set compared to
the Admin. For detailed information, see
follow these steps.
Step-by-step Process to Set User
