Logon | |
The PINsafe logon requires the user to enter a one-time code in addition to their standard Windows password | |
| |
To perform a single-channel logon first enter your username then click the Request Image link. To perform a dual-channel on-demand logon first enter your username then click the Request String link (not shown in the screenshot). If offline authentication is enabled when the Swivel server is not available, then clicking Request Image will send a request to the Swivel server first, and if no response is received, a local security string will be used instead. However, it can take some time for the request to the Swivel server to time out. If you know that the Swivel server is unavailable, you can check the Offline mode checkbox, and the image request will be sent locally only, not to the Swivel server. | |

Enter your Windows password and Swivel one-time code and click ">" to logon. If you find it difficult to read the displayed TURing image click the "Start Session" link again to request a new one. | |
