Keep 2min.PW

A convenient security bypass function that allows the device to remain unlocked during system reboots.

The Keep 2min.PW feature is designed to streamline the operating system installation process. When enabled, the IODD remains in an unlocked state for 2 minutes after a power cycle or system reboot, eliminating the need to re-enter your password repeatedly.

How it Works Once you unlock the device with your password, the IODD stores the "unlocked" state in its temporary memory. If the computer reboots and the IODD regains power within 120 seconds, it will bypass the password prompt automatically.

Recommended Use Case This feature is highly effective during Windows or Linux installations, where the system may need to restart several times to complete the setup or driver updates.

Operational Safety

Security Reminder While this feature is active, anyone who reboots your computer or reconnects the IODD within the 2-minute window can access your data without a password. Disable this feature once your installation work is complete to maintain maximum security.

Power Loss Limitation If the IODD remains without power (unplugged) for more than 2 minutes, the temporary unlock state will expire, and you must enter your password again to gain access.
