Product Overview
Logio is a single-user, secure electronic organizer for storing user IDs and passwords for websites and computer logins. You can also store ATM and cell phone PIN codes, credit card numbers, alarm codes, passport and driver’s license numbers, and even less sensitive information such as airline frequent flyer program account numbers. If you have been keeping passwords on paper (in your pocket, sticking it on your computer monitor, or putting it under your mouse pad), storing passwords in a “secret” file in your computer, using the same passwords on multiple websites, using easy-to-guess passwords, or forgetting hard-to-guess passwords, Logio is for you. With Logio, you can easily use better (“stronger”) passwords, have a different one for each website, store them more securely, and retrieve them more conveniently.
Logio protects your information by requiring a numeric master passcode to decrypt and access the user IDs and passwords that are stored on the Logio in encrypted format. Logio utilizes an implementation of the US Government recommendedogio utilizes an implementation of the US Government recommended AES encryption algorithm. Although no hardware or software security product can be guaranteed always to be effective against every kind of sophisticated intrusion attempt, the security features of Logio were carefully developed in collaboration with escrypt GmbH of Bochum, Germany, a company that specializes in embedded security design (www.escrypt.com).
Although this product’s user-friendly design makes it intuitive enough to be used without reading the User’s Manual, it is important that you at least read the section about inital setup of your master passcode. Also, some advanced features
such as jumping directly to the first or last record, jumping between the top line and the bottom line of a record, jumping between the first character and last character in a line, inserting a space before or between existing characters, deleting an entire record all at once, deleting an entire line all at once, and adding more auto-off time temporarily are not obvious. Most of these advanced features are covered in the Quick Reference Guide.
CAUTION: The LCD screen is made of glass and can break if bent. If you will be placing your Logio in a wallet, be warned that keeping your wallet in your back pocket and sitting on it could damage the product, possibly causing injury to you and rendering the product inoperable.

Initial Setup
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Your Logio automatically turns off after a set period of inactivity to save battery power and protect against intrusions by other people. The default auto-off time is one minute. Therefore it is recommended that you first read these entire Initial Setup instructions (especially the very important “Set up master passcode” section) before turning on your Logio, otherwise it may turn off while you are reading, and then you will have to start the initial setup process over. In case you are curious now, note that as described in this User’s Manual, there is a way to change the auto-off time both semi-permanently and temporarily, but the former method is only available as the last step in the initial setup and the latter method is only available after the initial setup is complete.
1. Remove the protective film from the LCD display
2. Install the battery
The battery is taped to the bottom of the big cavity on the back of the plastic clamshell package. To install the battery, turn the Logio face down, put your thumbnail into one of the two curved grooves next to the label, and gently pull out the battery tray. Turn the Logio and tray over and put the CR2016 lithium coin cell battery into the tray with the plus sign (+) on top. Make sure the battery sits all the way down in the tray. Put the tray back into the Logio by angling it slightly so that one barbed corner goes in first, and then straighten out the tray and gently slide it all the way in.
3. Turn on your Logio
Turn on by pushing the on/off button one time.
This message will display on the screen while Logio prepares to take you through the initial setup:
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 8
After several seconds, the screen will display:
Push one time.
4. Set up master passcode
THIS SECTION IS VERY IMPORTANT. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ IT COMPLETELY BEFORE PROCEEDING.
The screen will display:
Push one time. The screen will display:
Starting at the blinking cursor on line 3, you will enter a random 8 to 15 digit master passcode.
The master passcode consists of numbers only, so the alphanumeric character buttons on the Logio keypad input numbers only (not letters) when setting up and entering master passcodes. Therefore push alphanumeric buttons only one time to input numbers for the master passcode.
WARNING:
You will need to enter your master passcode every time you want to access your Logio, so you must not forget it. If you forget your master passcode, there is no
way to reset the passcode or the Logio, and there is no way to retrieve your user IDs and passwords. A master passcode can be changed later, but only if you are
already logged into Logio with the current master passcode.
Although a minimum of 8 digits are required, the more digits you use, up to the
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 9
maximum number of 15 allowed, the higher level of security you will have. (If you enter more digits than can display on one screen, the screen will shift to the right.)
It is very important that for your Logio master passcode you use random numbers that nobody else will be able to guess. Numbers that are not random sequences, such as 11111111, 12345678, 87654321, and 11223344 must be avoided.
One good way to memorize a long and random passcode is to remember a “passphrase”, which is a randomly found or made up sentence, such as “All I ever do is eat and sleep” (passphrases that are common expressions, such as “A fool and his money are soon parted”, must be avoided). The first letter (or second, or last, whatever you choose) of each word in the sentence corresponds to a particular button on your Logio keypad. In our example, the letter “A” in the word “All” is the number “2” because “A” and “2” are on the same button . In our example we have eight words, and if you used the first letter of each word, you would be entering 24334327 since these buttons contain the letters AIEDIEAS. So, if you use this passphrase technique, for your master passcode you are memorizing words and are in your own mind entering letters instead of numbers. But since Logio only recognizes numbers for the master passcode, you would not push the buttons on Logio multiple times to choose a particular letter. For example, pushing the “2” button one time on your Logio when entering a master passcode could mean “A”, “B”, “C”, or “2” to you, but to Logio it is just a “2”. So that means regardless of whether want to enter an “A”, “B”, “C”, or “2”, you would do the same thing, namely, push the “2” button one time only.
When entering your master passcode during the initial setup and every time you turn on your Logio, each number you input will display on the screen with an asterisk to “mask” the number you are entering so nobody can see it over your shoulder:
When you are done entering your master passcode, push .
If you enter more than 15 digits, your Logio will not accept them. If you enter less than eight digits, the screen will display:
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 10
Then you would push to start entering your master passcode from the beginning.
If you enter a master passcode that is 8 to 15 digits long, the screen will display:
Enter your master passcode again and then push . If the confirming master passcode does not match, the screen will display:
And then several seconds later the screen will display:
Pushing would allow you to try to confirm the master passcode again. If you wanted to start over with a new master passcode, you would push .
After you successfully confirm you master passcode, Logio will walk you through five more setup items. If you turn off your Logio (or it turns off automatically due to inactivity) before going through all five of these additional setup items, you will have to start the entire initial setup from the beginning next time you turn on your Logio.
5. Set up lost & found information
The screen will display:
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 11
Push . The screen will display:
Lost & found lets you display your name and telephone number on lines 1 and 2 of the screen when you turn on your Logio (you enter your master passcode on line
3). If you lose your Logio and someone finds it and turns it on, they will see whom
it belongs to and hopefully arrange to return it to you. You could use your email address instead of your telephone number but we do not recommend doing so since email addresses are sometimes used as website user IDs (and being paranoid security-minded people, we prefer not to give potential bad guys this information). Lost & found information is optional, and it can also be added or edited later by using the setup options button .
The title “Name:” will flash. When you enter the first letter of your name, this title will disappear. To leave the lost & found information blank, push or two times without inputting any characters. To enter your name, use the alphanumeric buttons on the Logio keypad. The first letter of each word will automatically be uppercase (only in lost & found, not in other areas of Logio). To capitalize any other letters, use the button like a “shift” key on a keyboard (push and hold it and then push the letter you want to enter). The Logio keypad works like most “multi-tap” cell phone keypads (except when entering the master passcode, which Logio processes as numbers only). For example, if you push one time, it will enter an “a”, two times “b”, three times “c”, and four times “2”. If you want to enter two letters or numbers that are on the same button, you have to wait a moment until the cursor moves before pushing the button again to enter the second character, or you can push if you do not want to wait. If you want to enter your last name, make a space after your first name by pushing . Note that the right arrow button can only create a space if there are no characters to the right of the cursor. If you want to INSERT a space before or between existing characters, push and hold and push .
If your name or telephone number is too long to display on the screen, the screen will jump to the right and you will see one or more left-pointing arrows on the left side of the screen to indicate you can push to go back to the left (main) screen. Likewise,
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 12
when you go back to the main screen, you will see a right arrow on the right side of any line that has overflowed, indicating that you can push to go to the right screen. When you are done entering characters, or if you want to leave the name field blank, push or . The cursor will move to the “Tel:” field and again the title will flash but then disappear when you start entering characters. When you are done entering your telephone number, or if you do not want to enter a telephone number, push or .
6. Set up user IDs 1, 2, and 3
The screen will display:
Push . The screen will display:
User IDs 1, 2, and 3 are the user IDs that you most frequently use to log on to various websites. For example, if you are John Doe, you might often use jdoe, johndoe, and jdoe@yourcompany.com as user IDs. Logio allows you to save these user IDs so that when you are adding new website records in Logio (a “record” consists of a website name and/or address, user ID, and password), you can easily enter the user ID by pushing two, three, or four times for user ID 1, 2, or 3 instead of having to enter the user ID character by character every time. User IDs 1, 2, and 3 are optional, and they can also be added or edited later by using the setup options button .
The title “ID1:” will flash. When you start entering characters, this title will disappear. To leave all three user IDs 1, 2, and 3 blank, push or three times without inputting any characters. Enter your first user ID (probably the one that you use most frequently). If any of your user IDs are an email address, you can use the @ symbol by pushing three times, and you can enter .com, .net, and .org by pushing the corresponding number of times instead of having to enter a period and letters individually. Special characters (symbols and punctuation marks) can be entered
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 13
using the button, which can input a total of 31 different characters.
When you are done entering ID1, or if you do not want to enter anything, push or . Do the same for the ID2 and ID3. Note that if you leave any of user IDs 1, 2, and/or 3 blank, then when you are adding a new record, Logio will skip them when you push . For example, if you set up user IDs 1 and 2 only, pushing (only with the cursor on line 2 of the screen, and only if there are no existing characters) in a new record will show the number 1, then your user ID 1, then your user ID 2, and then number 1 again because you do not have a user ID 3.
7. Set up button tone volume
The screen will display:
Push . The screen will display:
Button tones provide helpful sound feedback when pushing buttons on the Logio keypad.
Use the and buttons if you want to change the default “Med” (Medium) setting to “Off”, “Low”, or “High”.
Push when you are done. You can always change this setting later by pushing the setup options button .
8. Set up auto-off time
The screen will display:
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 14
Push . The screen will display:
Auto-off time is the amount of time until Logio will turn off automatically due to inactivity (i.e., after you stop pushing buttons but have not turned it off manually). The default setting is one minute. A longer time period means more power consumption and higher vulnerability to intrusion and is therefore not recommended. Note that you can add more time temporarily during any Logio session without having to change the semi-permanent auto-off time setting (see “Auto-Off Time ­Semi-Permanent & Temporary Settings” section).
Push and if you want to change the default auto-off time setting.
Push when you are done. You can always change this setting later by pushing the setup options button .
9. Set up contrast level
The screen will display:
Contrast level of the characters displayed on the screen is set by default to level three and, unlike other settings, defaults back to this level every time you remove the battery. Note that you may need to adjust the contrast level as the battery starts to wear down over a period of use (see “Changing Setup Options” section).
Push . The screen will display:
Push and if you want to change the contrast level (14 levels are available).
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 15
Push when you are done. You can always change this setting later (except when the battery is low) by pushing the setup options button .
Note that you can also directly change the contrast level, even when the battery is low, in “view” mode by pushing and holding and then pushing or . The new setting will be saved automatically as a semi-permanent setting, not a temporary setting.
THE INITIAL SETUP PROCESS IS NOW DONE AND ALL SETTINGS ARE SAVED.
Initial Setup
Logio User’s Manual, page 16
Adding New Records
After you finish the initial setup, the screen will display:
Again, a “record” is one set of data consisting of a website name and/or address on line 1, a user ID on line 2, and a password on line 3, for example:
You can set up new records now or later. Whenever you want to set up new records, push . The screen will display:
Site (website name and/or address)
The title “Site:” on line 1 will flash. When you start entering characters, this title will disappear. As described in the Initial Setup section above, except when entering the master passcode, which is numeric only, the buttons on the Logio keypad work much like a cell phone “multi-tap” keypad. Note that unlike in the lost & found setup, the first letter of a word will not be automatically capitalized. When you enter the website name and/or address, keep in mind that Logio sorts (alphabetizes) records by the first character(s) of line 1 of each record (numbers before letters – see “Sorting (Alphabetizing) Order” section for detailed information about how letters, numbers, and special characters are sorted in Logio). Although you can put whatever information you want in line 1, due to the database design of this product, for faster searching and saving it is advised not to start all of your record names with the same character(s) such as “www...” or “My… “. When done entering, push or to go to line 2.
