�Installing

Use the Pilot installer to install the program file TEALLOCK.PRC. It will appear on the Palm Computing device after the next HotSync.

This manual is also provided in this archive as the PalmPilot document LOCKDOC.PRC, which can be viewed with our other application TealDoc.

Instructions on how to use the Palm installer are in the Palm Handbook that came with your Pilot, PalmPilot, Visor or WorkPad.

Due to the nature of this program (a security app), you are strongly advised to back up your organizer following the instructions in your PalmPilot handbook before activating TealLock and setting a password. In the rare event you should you forget your password or run a downloaded application that interferes with TealLock, you may otherwise have limited options in getting back to your data, so it's best to be safe just in case.

When upgrading TealLock from older versions of the program, you may safely HotSync the new version over the old, but you must first turn off the previous version before HotSyncing the new, or your Palm will crash. If significant features have been added in the new version, you may need to re-enter your password, settings and registration information.
<HRULE>
�Overview

TealLock replaces the standard security application on your PalmPilot. It offers greater flexibility in order to fit your individual security needs.

Once installed, activate TealLock by going into the PalmPilot applications screen and clicking on the TealLock icon. Click on the ON button to restart your PalmPilot and activate TealLock. In some versions of the Palm OS, TealLock generates a dummy error message as a safe way to reset the device.
<HRULE>
�Using the Program

TealLock functions much like the standard Security application, but it offers many more activation and customization options. To do so, it maintains its own unlocking password. Similar to the standard app, you set or change a password which is used to lock the PalmPilot or protect private records from curious eyes. Note, however, that both the standard Security application and TealLock can hide and show private records, so you should set a password for the standard application as well as TealLock, so nobody can use the standard app to show records set hidden by TealLock. It's probably a good idea to make the passwords the same so there will not be any confusion between the two.

<HRULE>
�TealLock Main Screen

TealLock's Main Screen shows the current state of the program as well providing access to changing various settings and options.
<HRULE>
�TealLock Status

Indicates whether TealLock has been activated. When set to "on", TealLock can respond to Lock the PalmPilot or hide/show private records in response to pen strokes or power off. If a user password has been set, it will be requested before the TealLock can be turned off.
<HRULE>
�User Password

Set to either -Unassigned- or -Assigned- , the user password indicator shows whether a user unlocking password has been set in TealLock. While this indicator resembles one in the standard security app, note that both passwords are distinct and need to be set separately. For convenience, you should set them to be the same. Tap on the indicator to set or change the user password.

<HRULE>
�Private Records

Data records across all PalmPilot programs can be set to hidden or shown for programs that support them. The Private Records indicator shows their current state, and allows you to change this setting. If a user password has been set, you need to enter it in order to show private records that have been hidden.

<HRULE>
�Lock and Off

The Lock and Off button lets you quickly secure the PalmPilot from within TealLock. The device will be turned off, and when turned on again later, will appear on the TealLock Locking Screen. There are other, more convenient ways to do this when not in the program, accessible from the the TealLock Settings Screen, described below.

<HRULE>
�Change Settings

The Change Settings button lets you set the more interesting activation and customization options for TealLock from the Settings Screen.

<HRULE>
�TealLock Settings Screen

From the Settings Screen, you can customize TealLock's appearance and functionality and access its powerful activation options.

The following choices are available:
<HRULE>
�Image

Under Image, you can select a custom image to be used as a backdrop for the Locking screen. The image must be stored in a named TealPaint format image database, created either with TealPaint or the TealPaint Image Manager utility that accompanies TealPaint. If multiple images exist in the named database, one will be selected at random each time the PalmPilot is locked. You can also choose to treat the image database as an animation by selecting the "Animate" checkbox item.

<HRULE>
�Text

Under Text, you can select the content, font, and alignment of the text that appears on the Locking Screen. Typically, this consists of instructions, company, or owner information in case the device is lost.

<HRULE>
�Options

The Options popup lets you customize the appearance and functionality of the locking screen, adding various elements such as battery level indicator, private record hide/show checkbox, and a numeric keypad for entering numerical passwords (or perhaps for misleading would-be codebreakers).

<HRULE>
�Key Mapping

TealLock can remap the physical pushbuttons on a PalmPilot for easy pen-free passkey entry. By default, numbers are mapped to the buttons, but you can reassign the buttons in the Key Mapping dialog. When entering passkeys, the PageUp button functions as a backspace key, while the PageDown button acts as an 'OK' button, or 'Enter' key.

<HRULE>
�Hide/Show/Lock Activation

On the activation settings screen, you can set when TealLock hides private records, shows private records, or locks the device. Options include graffiti shortcut entry, on power off, if off a specified period of time, if turned off once a time of day has passed, or if turned on during a range of times. For all options except graffiti shortcut entry, days of the week can be specified where activation will occur. As showing private records requires passkey entry, only the shortcut option is available under the "Show when..." button.

Shortcut

Graffiti shortcut to hide/show private records or lock the PalmPilot. Write cursive 'l' followed by specified letter or letters. Note that capitalization is ignored and these shortcuts supercede any set in your preferences that may be supersets of these. For convenience, you should select letter that are not used in any of your graffiti shortcuts defined in the Palm Preferences app.
On power off

Hides private records or locks the PalmPilot when powered off
If off more than ___ minutes

Hide private records when off for more than a specified amount of time.
At time

Hides private records or locks the device at a specified time of day. Note that if the PalmPilot is on at the time, it will lock after it is turned off or goes to sleep.
If on between ___

Hides private records or locks the device if turned on within a time range
Active on

Sets the days of the week when the above activation options (except shortcut) are active.

<HRULE>
�Advanced Settings

The Advanced Settings screen allows one to set options designed to fine-tune TealLock's behaviour or compatibility with other programs.

Advanced Settings include:

Use as welcome screen option

When set, this option causes the Locking screen not to request a password for entry, even if one has been set to secure private records. Using the option in combination with one of the Lock when off options, the locking screen can instead function as a simple "welcome screen" greeting a user with the date, time, and a company logo or inspirational quote, perhaps.
Call TealGlance on Unlock

Activates the program TealGlance after the unlock screen has been dismissed. TealGlance normally appears on power-on, but won't do so if the device is locked in TealLock.
Blank screen on lock/hide

When the TealLock is set to hide private records or lock the device on power-off, it normally blanks the screen to prevent the previous application from flashing up briefly on screen. This may interfere with a few drawing programs, notably Bugme!, which store their graphics directly on screen. For compatibility with these programs, you may with to turn this option off.
Lock out silkscreen buttons

This options prevents third party popup programs and launchers from recognizing taps in the graffiti area when TealLock is locked.
Mask Passwords

When set, the password entry line on the TealLock locking screen masks the text being entered, showing simple boxes instead of the characters being entered.
Run on unlock _____

This options lets you specify a program to run when the PalmPilot is unlocked. When you do not use this option, TealLock just returns to the program that was running before the PalmPilot was locked.
Min password length

Useful mainly in conjuction with the administration password in TealLock Corporate Edition, the minimum password length feature allows an administrator to prevent a user from changing the password to anything shorter than a specified number of characters.
Activation timing

Allows one to adjust the TealLock's activation time when locking after power off for compatibility with third-party programs. Changing to either faster or shorter delay times may result in quicker overall switching times, as too fast a delay time may result in failed switching attempts and retries. Best results probably require experimentation.
Conceal Private Recs by Hiding/Masking

Adds support for Palm OS 3.5's private-record masking feature. When set to "masking", programs that support 3.5's making option will conceal private records as Masked instead of Hiding them.
Settings file

TealLock allows you to save the current settings, including password, activation state, and customization options, into a file that can be backed up onto the desktop. When moved into flash memory along with TealLock, the file can be used to lock the PalmPilot even after a full power loss or hard reset. To do so, first turn off TealLock, move it info flash, and turn it on again. Save the settings file, and move it into flash as well.
The passkey will be restored in event of memory loss and will be set as the system password as well. Use this feature with extra, extra care, as if you forget your passkey, you may end up permanently locked out of your PalmPilot.
The settings file can also be used to install identical settings on many devices if backed up onto the desktop backup folder using a utility like Backupbuddy. When installed with TealLock onto a PalmPilot that has never run TealLock, the file will copy its settings to TealLock and lock the device on activation.

<HRULE>
�Administrator Password

TealLock Corporate Edition Only:

The Administrator Password dialog lets you set a separate password deactivating TealLock or accessing the options screen. When an administrator password is set, TealLock's emergency password is disabled, and the User password will not be accepted for turning off TealLock or changing settings. The Administrator password, however, will grant full access to the device.

<HRULE>
�Tips
<HRULE>
�Setting a Password

If you set a password, whenever you lock the device, you'll be required to enter the key again to regain access to your data. If you hide private records, you'll also be asked for the same key to show the records again. Obviously, you should keep your password in a safe place. Be sure to set a password for the standard security app as well, so private records cannot be shown from there without a password. We recommend you set both passwords to the same value.

<HRULE>
�Emergency Password

When you register, you'll be given an emergency password that can be used to unlock your PalmPilot should you forget your normal password. This will be keyed to your Hotsync name and will not work on another PalmPilot. This is not the same as your registration key. Note that the emergency password only works with TealLock, not with the System Lockout screen, which comes up if someone tries to bypass TealLock by resetting the PalmPilot. Also, the emergency Password is disabled in TealLock Corporate Edition if an administrator password is set.

<HRULE>
�Lock-screen Images

You can select an image database to be used for a background for your "locked" screen. This database must be in TealPaint format and can be modified in TealPaint. You can have multiple images in this database. If you do, a random image will be chosen each time you lock the PalmPilot. Thus, you can create a number of images in TealPaint, and add text there if you wish for "quote of the day" functionality, inspirational images, etc. In the image-select screen, enter the name of the image database to use. The one provided with TealLock is called "LockImgs". If you change it, be sure to specify the name as it appears in TealPaint with the exact same spelling and capitalization.

<HRULE>
�Lock-screen Text

The text that appears on the "Locked" screen can be modified. It can be bold or not, but is always black on white and drawn from the left hand side of the display or centered. If you are using an image, you should make space for the text, or better yet, render the text into the images themselves.

<HRULE>
�Shortcuts

Use the shortcuts to hide private records, show private records, or lock the PalmPilot, at anytime. You do not need to be in a text-editing field for the shortcuts to work. A shortcut is a graffiti stroke which resembles a cursive lower-case 'l' followed by letter you select. A popup screen will tell you when private records are shown or hidden. When showing private records, if you have a password set, you'll be asked for the password to continue, and returned to the previous application when done.

<HRULE>
�Welcome Screen Only

If you want to use a password to protect your private records, but don't want to lock your PalmPilot, you can set the "Welcome Screen" option, which turns the "locked" screen into a "welcome" screen that does not require a password, but shows your message and waits for an "OK" before continuing.

<HRULE>
�System Lockout Screen

If your PalmPilot is reset while locked, TealLock will fallback to the system Lockout Screen in ROM for maximum security. This lockout screen has the text "System Lockout Screen" at the top of the screen. The password for this screen will only be the same as TealLock's password if you set them to be the same. The TealLock emergency password will not work for the System Lockout Screen, and there is no way past this lockout screen if you forget the password here.

<HRULE>
�Appendix A - Compatibility

As we cannot control the style and robustness of other products, we cannot guarantee compatibility with PalmPilot applications beyond those included from Palm Computing. However, we try to resolve compatibility issues as best we can.
<HRULE>
�Visor Flash

TealLock detects when it is installed in Flash and works properly when installed in the flash memory of flash-enabled Palm models using third party flash utilities. It cannot activate when installed in a Visor Flash card, however, because the card is removable.
<HRULE>
�Defragger

Be sure to disable TealLock before running a memory management program like Defragger, or changing the state of any hack that may patch into graffiti recognition routines.
<HRULE>
�Security

Note that the system security program is still active on your machine when TealLock is running. You should set a password for it so someone can't unlock your private records with the system security program. Also note that some programs which offer a "lock and off" feature may call the built-in security screen directly, either as a handy feature (LaunchPad) or as a security precaution (CheckIn) after a reset. When this occurs, you may seem to get a "double" locked screen. Note if this occurs, one screen is actually the system security screen, not TealLock. You can identify the System lock screen because it will say "System Lockout" at the top. When you get this screen, remember that you must enter your system password, which may differ from the one you entered into TealLock.
<HRULE>
�SafeHack

TealLock should make SafeHack unneccessary. When activated, SafeHack may interfere with TealLock activation.
