Troubleshooting and Repair
w The complete self-test procedure is documented in the OmniBook 5500 Operating
Guide.
OmniBook
Self-Test
w The OmniBook 5500 is the first OmniBook to incorporate drive lock. Drive lock
locks the IDE interface on the hard disk drive so that the drive can not be removed
from one OmniBook and read in another OmniBook. Both the IBM and Toshiba Hard
Disk Drives that ship with the OmniBook 5500 incorporate this feature.
Once a user sets the User Password in the SCU, the OmniBook automatically
transfers that password to the hard disk drive in the unit. If the hard disk drive is put
in another unit, the password of the new OmniBook must be changed to match the
password set on the drive in order to access the drive.
If the User Password does not match the drive lock password, a message will be
displayed warning that the drive could not be unlocked because of an incorrect
password. :
A drive failure will not display the drive lock error message.
If the unit still functions, insure that the user removes the user password before
returning the product for repair.
