Password file management

The password file of the RTU500 series can be reset to factory default and be exchanged between
different RTUs. For this functionality the password file can be reset, uploaded and downloaded via
the RTU500 series Web server. The corresponding user interface can be found under the link "User
Management" in the menu item "Management". The figure below shows the user interface for the
password file management in the tab "Password File".

To reset the password file to factory default the button "Reset" has to be used. When pressed a
dialog appears to confirm the reset. After confirmation with "Ok" the default password file is active
directly. A reset of the RTU500 series is not necessary, but all users are logged out and a re-login
is required. After the reset all user accounts and passwords are reset to the default values. That
means the re-login must happen with a default user and password.
For the exchange of a password file the file must be downloaded from an RTU first. This is done
by selecting the button "Download" in the tab "Password File". When pressed an information status
bar appears like shown in the figure below. To save the downloaded password file on the host PC
select the button "Save".
