A00 SecureTraveler User's Manual 10 4. 2 Accessing Your Privacy Zone When you insert the DataTraveler® into a compatible computer, it will be detected and a window will display with the contents of the public zone as shown in Section 3 (Figure 3). To access the privacy zone, do one of the following: A. Double-click on the SecureTraveler executable file name shown for the DataTraveler in Section 3 (Figure 3). Click once on the task bar "Quick Launch" shortcut for SecureTravelerTM or doubleclick on the workspace shortcut (if set up in the Format screen; see Section 4. 3 for details on these shortcuts, Figures 19 and 20). If a privacy zone does not exist, the screen flow will start as shown in Section 4. 1 as SecureTraveler will assume that you are trying to define a privacy zone. If a privacy zone exists, you will be asked to login using the password you defined in Section 4. 1 (Figure 13): Figure 13: SecureTraveler Login Note: You can only access one zone at a time. Prior to logging into your privacy zone, you will only be able to access the public zone. After you log into your privacy zone, you will be able to access it but not the public zone. To re-access the public zone, you will need to log out of your privacy zone first. Enter your password and click OK to continue, or Cancel to exit SecureTraveler. If you enter your password incorrectly, you will get an error message. SecureTraveler allows up to 5 password verification attempts. If the privacy zone becomes blocked for further access, follow the directions provided in the dialog boxes to access your privacy zone. Document No: 4808056-001.
