5.3.1.1 Changing Your Passwords
You may want to change your system access passwords frequently, in order to maintain
optimum security on your network. The recommended passwords are a minimum of 6 and no
more than 12 characters in length, are not found in a dictionary, and contain both letters and
numbers. Because the system is case-sensitive for password entries, you can mix uppercase
and lowercase letters to provide more possible passwords.
The system provides three passwords that can be edited. Each represents a different access
level that allows an operator to perform system certain tasks after logging in.
To change a password, first log into the system under the
Manager
access level password,
then choose the CPU card from the System Main Screen. Then, in the CPU Card Main Screen
(Figure 5-2), highlight the password you want to change, press the <Enter> key, type the new
password over the current one, and press <Enter> again. Finally, make sure the new password
appears as you want (remember that passwords are case-sensitive), and save your changes.
SUPERUSER
The "
Superuser
" password level is reserved for use only by factory personnel. You cannot edit
this password.
Action Function

Undo Returns all settings to the last saved state.

settings but did not save them yet, you will be prompted to save or lose those
