Defining Your Password

There are two passwords in WinSPM:
Application Password. There is an application-level password that serves as a security
I
measure for accessing the WinSPM software itself. You are prompted to enter this password
during the application login. Any characters that can be entered with the keyboard are
acceptable. An asterisk displays for each password character entered. Since the actual
password characters are not displayed, you are prompted to reenter your password for
confirmation.
System Password. A password is always required to establish a modem connection with the
I
MERLIN MAGIX Integrated System. You can perform remote system programming only if you
enter the correct password. (See
system password.)
SECURITY ALERT:
The password characters do not appear on the screen as you type them.
I
Use a minimum of five characters.
I
Passwords should consist of a random, non-repetitive, hard-to-guess sequence of
I
characters.
