Setting the security chip
Strict security requirements are imposed on network client computers that transfer confidential information
electronically. Depending on the options you ordered, your tablet might have an embedded security chip, a
cryptographic microprocessor.
Setting the security chip
The choices offered on the Security Chip submenu under the Security menu of the ThinkPad Tablet Setup
program are the following:
• Security Chip Selection: select the security chip you want to use.
• Security Chip: activate, inactivate, or disable the security chip.
• Clear Security Chip: clear the encryption key.
Notes:
1. Ensure that the supervisor password has been set in the ThinkPad Tablet Setup program. Otherwise
anyone can change the settings for the security chip.
2. If the security chip is removed or replaced, or a new one has been added, the tablet will not start. You
will hear four cycles of four beeps each.
3. If the security chip is inactive or disabled, the Clear Security Chip option will not be displayed.
4. When you clear the security chip, be sure to turn your tablet off and then turn it on again after you set
the security chip to Active. Otherwise, the Clear Security Chip option is not displayed.
To set an item on the Security Chip submenu, do the following:
1. Print these instructions.
2. Save all open files, and exit all applications.
3. Press the power button and the volume-up button at the same time when you turn on the tablet. The
