Unlock a VSC

If your VSC displays the error message "Your security device is locked" during use,
you have the following options:
  1. Then you can unlock it, for example, by resetting the VSC PIN.
    You can find the instructions here here.
    Important: This does not work always work.
  2. Wait until the VSC unlocks itself after a certain time and then restart your computer.
    Since the time can vary depending on the device type and configuration, we cannot give an exact time.
    This usually lasts between 1 and 12 hours.
  3. If neither of these options works, please contact the Arvato Systems Service Desk: +49 5241 80-88087 | 88087@bertelsmann.de.
