Managing User Accounts

By default, your DVR comes with one user account, the Administrator account. The
Administrator user name is admin and the password is 12345. The default password for
Administrator should be changed right away for security reasons. The Administrator has
the authority to add, delete or configure parameters for many of the system functions.
