TruVision DVR 40 User Manual
Modifying a user's PIN
To modify a user's PIN
PINs are used to limit access to the TVR 40. Only the administrator can create or delete a PIN.
The same PIN can be used by several users. When you create a new user, the default PIN is 0000.
Caution: When you have completed the installation of the TVR 40 you must change the
Administrator PIN. Only authorized users should be able to modify menu settings.
1. In the User menu select the user whose PIN you want to change. The user name is highlighted.
Note: When a user's name is highlighted, the PIN and Confirm boxes display ********. If there are no
symbols displayed in these boxes, the selected user does not have a PIN.
2. Go to the Set PIN edit box.
3. Using the number buttons on the front panel, or the on-screen numeric keyboard, enter the new
PIN. A PIN can have up to 16 numbers. When finished, press Enter or left-click the mouse to exit
edit mode.
4. Go to the Confirm edit box and re-enter the new PIN. When finished, press Enter or left-click the
mouse to exit edit mode.
If the two PINs entered are identical, the PIN is saved and becomes effective immediately.
However, if they are different a warning message appears. Press Enter to confirm. You will return
to the PIN edit box and must re-enter the new PIN again.
5. Go to OK and press Enter or left-click the mouse to accept the save and return to the main menu.
