Security Settings - AMX NXD-1200VG Operation/Reference Manual

Security Settings

The Security button on the Protected Setup page has three settings: Standard Security, Secure, and DoD. Each setting
has different features for touch panel security:
Security Profile Features
Standard Security:
Secure:
DOD:
Toggling between these three immediately and automatically resets the existing password to the default password for that
setting. With an unsecured panel using the Standard Security setting, the default password is 1988. With panels using
either the Secure or the DoD settings, the default password is Amx1234! (paying attention to the case of the letters).
Entering the existing password will not work and the default will need to be entered at this point will allow access to the
Protected Settings page and allow resetting of the password to a new one.
If the Security button setting is changed in any way, even if it is toggled back to its
original setting, the password is automatically reset to the default for the chosen
setting. You MUST use the new default of 1988 (Standard Security) or Amx1234!
(Secure or DoD) to re-enter the Protected Settings page.
If accessing the touch panel via telnet, both the default user name AND the default
password will be changed if the Security button setting has been changed. The
defaults are:
username: amx
password: Amx1234!
The correct case must be followed with the username: "AMX" or "Amx" will not work.
