Customizing FastAccess  
To help keep FastAccess secure, features affecting overall system security and certain advanced features can only be changed if you have Vista administrator 
rights.   
l Configuration Console:  Allows changing the Security Level, Web Logins and Advanced features. Only administrator accounts have access to the 
Configuration Console.    
l User Settings:  Allows changing Web Logins and Notification Messages. Only Vista user accounts have access to User Settings.   
Configuration Console: Security    
The main security features of FastAccess are controlled by the Security Level Adjustment slider. As you move the slider from left to right, you turn on 
FastAccess and add increasing levels of security. As you move this slider, a brief description of the operating modes are displayed below the slider. You may 
set the following four security levels:    
1. Disabled   
2. Face Login (Factory default setting)   
3. User Switching   
4. Continuous Security    
OK button : This button closes the Console and saves all changes.    
Cancel button : This button closes the Console without saving any changes. 
Choosing the Desired Webcam for Face Recognition  
l Automatic Webcam Selection:  Automatic Webcam Selection simplifies operation if more than one webcam is installed on your computer. FastAccess 
connects to a Dell Monitor webcam first.   
l Manual Webcam Selection:  Your desired webcam can be selected by opening the  “ FastAccess Configuration Console ”   and clicking the  “ Advanced ”  
button. Next click the  “ Camera Selection ”   link and select the desired webcam.    
Using the Automatic Web Login  
The Web Login Vault feature allows FastAccess to remember user names and passwords for many of the websites that require a login. The Web Login 
Vault will automatically enter the user name and password for a website.  
The first time you enter a user name and password into a website with a login, FastAccess will present a small pop - up box. This box allows you to Keep On or 
Turn Off the Web Login Vault.  
Security Recommendations  
We recommend FastAccess be set to use the  “ Face + Password ”   feature.  Face + Password periodically requires your password in addition to your face.  This 
provides better security than any biometric or password alone.
