POA is AD username / pass not PIN

Question

Hi. 
 
 so Windows 7 64Bit. 
 I assumed this would use bitlocker so come up asking me to create a pin, or i'd need to use bitlocker to tell it to need a PIN. But, instead it's got the Sophos Safeguard splashscreen and is asking for the AD username / password as the boot combination is this what others get, or have i misconfigured something? 
 
 Would all Win7 devices basically be like this and should be using the Sophos software and use the Username / Password combo. It's only Win 10 that will have the bilocker splashscreen and PIN. 
 I presume i'm just being an idiot for assuming that it would use bitlocker and it's fine just i need to educate users it's this on a Win7 pc and looks different and will have a pin on Win10. Or do I have a policy set wrong and i should be able to get a PIN instead on these.

Hi Steph - Double check you're installing onto Win7 with an OS that's compatible with BitLocker - the lesser versions don't have it and will have to use Sophos encryption and not BL. 
 I didn't want this with our estate and it was one of the decisions to offer Win10 as the sole OS for Windows for the encryption service. I think consistency is key with things like this - You want the end-users to have an easy and consistent interface. 
 You can get Windows (assuming you have Ultimate/Enterprise - Professional does NOT include it unlike Win8 and above) to use BL though - it's falling back to Sophos encryption I believe because it can't activate BL. 
 Can you confirm it's Ultimate/Enterprise of Win7 you have installed?
