The Keylock 2-3 The A4000 front panel keylock is designed to prevent unauthorized use of the Amiga. When the keylock key is in the unlocked position the keyboard and mouse work normally. When the key is in the locked position, the Amiga does not respond to keyboard or mouse activity. Remove the key from the lock when in the locked position, and take the key with you to prevent unauthorized access to the computer. Note Although mouse motion has no effect when the keylock is locked, the Amiga does respond to the mouse buttons. Do not leave the mouse pointer over a gadget or icon when locking it, to prevent mouse button clicks from having an effect.

The system can still be turned off when the keylock is in the locked position. Important: Do not turn off or reboot the Amiga while any disk activity is in progress! Wait at least 5 seconds after all disk drive activity lights have gone out before removing floppy disks or turning off the Amiga. Also, if you are using software that automatically saves to disk periodically or which allows remote access to the Amiga's disks through a network, exit the software or disable the network connection before powering off or rebooting. When you finish a computing session and want to turn off the Amiga: 1. Save to disk any work that you want to keep.

Turning off or rebooting the Amiga erases whatever is in memory. 2. Remove any disks from the floppy drive(s). Turning Off the Amiga The Keylock
