Coastcom D/I Mux III System User Manual page 176

Use the SW command to Set/install a CCU passWord, as shown in Figure
4-65. Actual password entries will not be visible upon entry.
There are three levels of passwords that allow the user to either control or observe different operating
levels of the system. Up to eight passwords may be assigned.
•
Level 1 access is the highest level, and allows a user to configure the system, monitor the system,
and install passwords. There can be more than one Level 1 password.
•
Level 2 access allows the user to configure and monitor the system, but will not give access to the
install password screen.
•
Level 3 access permits only system monitoring. The main menu screen for a Level 3 user only
shows the display options.
Note: Once established, the Level 1 password takes precedence. Be careful not to lose
this password, write it down and place it in a secure location. It is required for
maximum control of the system. (If the password is lost, the shelf must be reset to
factory defaults by performing an NVRAM clear. Then, a new password can be
selected.)
When creating passwords, the Level 1 password must be created first.
The password is not displayed as it is entered. Upper and lower case are
considered different characters.
