16.1.10 User Function 9 - Set Camera ID
User 9 provides the capability of entering a 16 character camera
identification message that appears on the video monitor display
whenever that specific camera is called up for viewing. If desired,
this message can be used to identify the particular scene being
viewed. Refer to the Character ROM Tables at the end of this
manual for the various characters available. After entering the
mode, Users with the priority level 1 can use the joystick to move
right or left to select the character to be changed. The selected
character will be identified by a box with a question mark inside
it. The first line of the video monitor screen will indicate the code
number of the character selected. Move the joystick up or down
to single step through the character ROM table, or enter the
character's number as identified in the Tables using the numeric

16.1.11 User Function 10 - Change USER Password
User function 10 allows an operator to change system access
passwords. This feature would only be required in systems
where the keyboard log-in and password security feature has
been enabled by the system installer. After entering the mode,
the video monitor display will prompt the user for the current
password by displaying "OLD PASSWORD". Enter the
current user password using the numeric keypad and press
ENTER. If the system does not accept the old password, the
prompt will not proceed past this point. If the entered
password is valid, the display will change to the "NEW
PASSWORD" prompt for entering the new password. Key in
the new password (up to 6 numerals) using the numeric keypad
and press ENTER. You may also leave this step blank if no
password is desired. If none is used, all that is required when
you log-on to the system in the future is to press ENTER at
the "P" prompt. To safeguard against typographical errors, the
system will then prompt you with "VERIFY PASSWORD" to
reenter the new password for verification. If the entered
passwords do not agree, the system will require reentry and
verification of the new password. If the two password entries
agree, the video monitor prompt will indicate "PASSWORD
UPDATED". Press USER to exit the mode.

Users with the priority level 1 can use User function 11 to select

on the main CPU module's DIP switches.
Alternatively, the main power to the CPU bay may be switched

complexity of the system, several seconds may be required before
operation is restored. This time is due to the amount of
initialization tasks which must be performed and is considered
normal.
