Create an 8-position Personal Identification Number (PIN). The PIN must be exactly 8 positions with letters and numbers only (no special characters). The PIN should be something that is easily

PIN to confirm, and click .

If your logon fails, do not attempt another logon until a new 6-digit TOKENCODE is displayed. After three consecutive logon failures, you are prompted to enter the next 6-digit TOKENCODE following the one you just entered.
