The Core parameters such as network settings can also be configured using ACC
Console which is available for all Access Controller types, and accessible via
Telnet session to controller IP address.
In addition to this, ACC-Lite controller offers configuration via LCD / Keypad menu
interface.
These additional security measures have been introduced in ACC version 2.70.x
After the first login to the ACC Console with the default password, you will be
asked to change the password for security purpose. The password must be secure
with at least one of upper and lower case characters, digits, and one or more
special character, e.g. *&#$. Record this new password in a secure place after
setting.
If you changed the password and then install an earlier version of the ACC
firmware, the ACC will revert back to the password set before MP2.70 was
installed. (If you still had the default password when the MP2.70 version of ACC
was installed, and then the MP2.65 version of the ACC is installed, you must logon
on with the default password, not the password entered during MP2.70 version
installation).
If you then re-install the MP2.70 build, the new password that was set when
MP2.70 was first installed, will still be valid.
This also applies to login via the ACC-G2 standalone USB configuration tool.
These additional security measures were introduced in ACC version 2.70.x
The default PIN is '1111'.
If you upgrade from an earlier version of ACC-Lite to the MP2.70 version, the first
time you open the keypad and login with the default PIN, you will be asked to Set a
new PIN for security purposes. The PIN must be secure and not just a simple
sequence of numbers such as 1111, 1234, 4321 or similar. The PIN length must be
4-10 digits. Record this new PIN in a secure place after setting it.
If you change the ACC-Lite PIN and forget, it can be changed with an ACC telnet
Console command. If both PIN and Telnet passwords are lost, then the device
must be returned to the manufacturer or Siemens.
If you changed the PIN using SiPass integrated MP2.7, install an earlier version of
the ACC-Lite firmware, then again re-install MP2.7, you must logon with the PIN
that was previously set (because the PIN has already been changed using the
MP2.7 build, setting a new PIN is not required again).
