- İlk kurulum: Power on the device. Press a specific key (often a 'Lock' or 'Set' button) followed by your desired PIN (typically 6-16 digits) and then confirm the PIN.
- Kilidi Açma: When connecting the device, it will remain locked. Enter your PIN on the keypad and press the 'Unlock' or 'Enter' key. The drive will then become accessible.
- Kilitleme: To secure your data, safely eject the drive from your computer or disconnect the USB cable. The drive will automatically re-lock.
- Changing PIN: Follow the manufacturer's specific instructions for changing your PIN, which usually involves entering the old PIN first, then the new PIN twice.
Important: If you forget your PIN, there is no recovery method for the encrypted data. Ensure you remember your PIN or keep it in a secure, accessible location.
