3 The Administrative Console
The Administrative Console is divided into several tabs, each used to configure different
aspects of your ISY.
3.1 Basic Configuration
Before getting started, it's important to configure a few basic things on the ISY.
3.1.1 Setting the User ID and Password
For security reasons, please change the default username and password used to connect to
your ISY. Choose the Set Userid/Password option with the Administrative Console's File
pull-down menu as shown below.
When choosing your new username and password, please consider the following:
Both the User ID and password must be entered
User ID and passwords are case sensitive
The ID and password must be between 3 and 10 characters
The following characters are NOT allowed: < > / ; &
3.1.2 Setting the Time and Location
Click the ISY's Configuration tab, then the System sub-tab, to set your time (used for
Program schedules) and location (used to calculate sunrise/sunset times).
