Entering The Administrator Password - HP BL536A User's & Service Manual

Figure 61 Autoloader menu tree
The administrator password accesses all of the available functionality, except for the HP Service
Area. A user without the administrator password has access to the Unlock Mailslot and
Status/Information menus.

Entering the administrator password

TIP: By default, the administrator password is unset; all of the digits are null. You must set the
administrator password from the OCP to protect the administrator functions on the OCP and enable
the administrator functions in the RMI.
Options that require a password will prompt for a password before allowing access to the restricted
screens. Once entered, the administrator password does not need to be entered again unless there
is no user activity for five minutes or the password lock is enabled.
The number 1 should be flashing. To enter the password, do the following:
1. From the operator control panel, press Next to scroll to the first number of the password.
2. Press Enter. The number you selected is replaced with an asterisk (*), and the cursor proceeds
to the next text box.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you have entered all eight numbers. After the last number has been
entered, the screen continues to the restricted area.
NOTE: If you forget the administrator password, you cannot enter a new password. You must
call your customer service representative.
