Logging Into the System

The first step in starting an operator session is to log into the system. You must enter a
username and password that allows you to perform the required tasks on the system. The
initial (default) login information corresponds to one of four different access levels, each
allowing you to perform certain tasks. The only provided default username and password is
admin / admin as shown in Table 5-2 on page 5-8.Table 5-3 on page 5-8 lists the default
privileges for each access level that can be assigned.
All usernames and passwords are case-sensitive for maximum security. For example, the
system interprets the usernames TechMan, TECHMAN, and Techman as three different
username entries.
To log into the system from a local terminal, proceed as follows. To log in from a remote PC
refer to details later in this reference manual.
1. Press <Enter>. The Login Screen depicted in Figure 5-6 should appear. If not, press
<Enter> repeatedly until it does.
2. If the Login Screen does not appear after you press <Enter> several times, check your
terminal settings (they should be 9.6 kbps, eight data bits, no parity, and one stop bit)
3. Contact your system administrator for your username and Password. Enter your
username and password. Then, press RETURN to accept the information, which will
allow you to configure your system after logging in for the very first time. Refer to the
next section for descriptions of the various operator password levels.
