The configuration utility will remain active until you enter the command to exit the utility (usually
). If the serial configuration utility connection method is used to access the utility and an
99
inactivity time-out is enabled, a session will end if the inactivity period is reached.
Passwords
The configuration utility requires an administration password for access. When the hub ships (or
after it is reinitialized), there is no configured password. After you create a password, you will be
prompted for it each time you access the configuration utility.
The administration password is common between the configuration utility and the web interface.
No encryption is used when entering the password with the configuration utility.
If you reinitialize the ESP serial hub, the password is lost; you will be required to create a password
the next time you access the configuration utility or the web interface.
To set or change the password:
1.
From the Top Menu, enter

You are prompted for the new password. Enter a 5-32 character password. Passwords are case
sensitive and may contain any alphanumeric characters.
3.

message will appear.
