Device Usage (Windows Environment)

Once the DTVP has been initialized, you can
access the secure data partition and utilize the
device options by logging into the device with
your password. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Insert the DTVP into a USB port on your
notebook or desktop and enter your pass-
word (see
Figure 4.1
2. Once you've typed your password, click the
'Login' button to continue.
• If the correct password is entered, the
DTVP will unlock and you can begin
using the device.
• If an incorrect password is entered, an error message will appear just below the 'Hint'
field, indicating a login failure.
(NOTE: During the login process, if a bad password is entered, you will be given another
opportunity to enter the correct password; however, there is a built-in security feature that
tracks the number of
10 failed attempts, the DTVP will lock and require a device format of the secure data partition
prior to next use. THIS MEANS THAT ALL DATA STORED ON THE DTVP WILL BE
ERASED. For more details on this feature, see 'Device Lockout' on page 20.)
3. You may unlock the secure data partition in read-only mode, sometimes referred to as
"write-protect mode", by selecting the checkbox labeled 'Read-Only Mode' prior to logging
into the device. Once authenticated under read-only, you will be allowed to open or view
content on the DTVP, but not update, change, or erase content while in this mode. (Note:
Read-only mode will also prevent the format option from appearing in the DTVP menu that
later appears on page 11.)
If you are currently logged in under read-only mode and wish to unlock the device with full
read/write access to the secure data partition, you must shutdown DTVP (see page 12) and log
back in, leaving the 'Read-Only Mode' checkbox unchecked during authentication.
*Note: Once you authenticate to the device successfully, the failed login counter will reset.
