Programming Password Protection

Description:
The system provides two different entry levels for programming and allows for a
different password for each entry. You must use the VDT programming method to
change them as needed to provide security against unauthorized program entries. The two
programming entry levels are the installer level and the administrator level. You enter the
installer level, using the installer password, to perform all programming functions
including major changes such as master clearing or line type programming.
Administrators enter the administrator level, using the administrator password, to
perform most programming functions except those major changes just mentioned. You
can make the two passwords different to limit access to either programming level to only
certain special or authorized people. Additionally, you can construct a password that will
prevent all COS programming entry from station 10.
The default passwords are detailed in the following list:
VDT Installer
VDT Administrator
Station 10 Installer
Station 10 Administrator
Customized passwords can be alpha-numeric or numeric only (no spaces allowed) and
must contain six characters. To retain the ability to enter programming from station 10,
you must maintain the I nnn format in the VDT password and you must enter only
numbers in the nnn entry; however, you must not enter a zero for the leading n.
Once you customize a password, it remains customized and you must use the new
password to gain entry into the system for future programming tasks. Neither default nor
master clear will erase the customized password. It is very important that you keep a hard
copy of the customized password since it provides the only entry to system COS
programming through either the VDT or station 10. If no one can remember the
customized password, Comdial's Technical Services Department can provide emergency
entry but it charges a fee for this service. Otherwise, you must disconnect all AC power
and any battery back-up equipment, wait an extended period of time (up to several
weeks) for the internal memory protection to completely discharge, and reprogram the
system using the default password to gain entry.
NOTE:
Password protection programming is a Video Display Terminal feature only. You can not
customize a password using station 10 programming entry.
