Aegis Padlock SSD - Connections
Before you begin
Be sure to review the following information before you begin to use the
Aegis Padlock.
Attention: Use only the included cables with your Aegis Padlock.
You might damage the drive if you use a cable not included with the
Aegis Padlock.
The Aegis Padlock is designed for portable use without an AC power
adapter and in most cases will be able to power on a single USB port.
In the event that the Aegis Padlock is unable to power on a single USB
connection, use the included USB Y-cable.
Connecting the Aegis Padlock
1. Attach the integrated USB cable of the Aegis Padlock drive to an
available USB port on your computer, as shown below.
NOTE: While the Aegis Padlock SSD will work with any USB port, for
the fastest speeds, connect to a USB 3.0 port on your computer.
2. At least one of the Aegis Padlock LEDs should turn on, indicating that
the Aegis Padlock is receiving power.
If none of the LEDs turn
on or the drive locks when
writing to the disk, use the
included USB Y-cable.
Refer to directions on the
following page

When you rst plug in the SSD
Padlock, the unit will do a self-test
to verify all security components
are working properly. The LEDs
will go through 3 test stages
RED, GREEN, and BLUE. This
will be followed by three GREEN
ashes on a successful test. Any
test failure will leave the unit in an
interoperable state with the RED
LED ashing.
First Time Use
Before the Padlock can be used, the Admin PIN MUST be set. The LED will display
Solid BLUE and Solid GREEN to indicate the Padlock is waiting for a PIN to be set.
To Set-up the Admin PIN:
1. Press UNLOCK + 9. The LED will change to Solid BLUE and Blinking GREEN.
2. Enter the new Admin PIN and press UNLOCK key. If accepted the GREEN LED
will ash for 3 short blinks, then return to Solid BLUE and Blinking GREEN.
3. Re-enter the Admin PIN and press the UNLOCK key. If accepted the GREEN
LED will be Solid for 3 seconds.
4. LED will then turn BLUE and remain in Admin mode for 30 seconds or if the
LOCK key is pressed, will return the drive to a standby state.
5. The Admin PIN is now set and will allow access to the drive or the Admin features.
6. To UNLOCK the drive, enter the new PIN and press UNLOCK.
*Note: PINs must be a minimum length of 7 maximum 16 digits.
Cannot contain all consecutive numbers (2345678 or 9876543)
