Logging On

Microsoft Windows requires that users identify themselves by entering a user
name and password in a login window. By default, the R&S ESR provides two
user accounts:
● "NormalUser": a standard user account with limited access
● "Instrument": an administrator account with unrestricted access to the com-
puter/domain
Some administrative tasks require administrator rights (e.g. the configuration of a
LAN network). Refer to the description of the basic instrument Setup ([Setup]
menu) to find out which functions are affected.
Passwords
For all default user accounts, the initial password is 894129. Note that this pass-
word is very weak, and we recommend changing the password for both users
after initial login. An administrator can change the password in Microsoft Windows
for any user at any time via "Start" > "Settings" > "Account" > "SignIn Options" >
"Password" > "Change".
Auto-login
When shipped, the instrument automatically logs on the default "Instrument" user
to Microsoft Windows using the default password. This function is active until an
administrator explicitly deactivates it or changes the password.
Changing the password and use of auto-login function
Note that when you change the default password, the default auto-login
function no longer works!
In this case, you must enter the new password manually to log on.
Deactivating the automatic login function
1. Select the "Windows" icon on the front panel to access the operating system
of the R&S ESR (see also
2. In the Windows "Start" menu, select "Run".
The "Run" dialog box is displayed.
3. Enter the command C:\R_S\INSTR\USER\NO_AUTOLOGIN.REG.
