Cannot unlock the terminal after bringing it out of sleep mode

Cause

To conserve battery life, the user terminal is configured to suspend USB devices when the terminal is in power mode. When a user wakes the user terminal, the USB devices are not reactivated until after the user logs in to the terminal.

Resolution

To resolve this issue, perform one of the following actions:

• Create a Windows group policy to disable USB Selective Suspend.
• Manually disable the USB Selective Suspend option on each terminal. For example, on Windows 10, perform the following steps:
  1. Open Power Options, and then click Additional Power Settings.

     The following figure provides an example of the Power Options window.
