2-4 AD168 System Operator’s Manual
Logging on to AD168
This section describes how to get started using the AD168 system. It discusses the use of passwords to
gain access to the system, and how your password defines the level of access you have to the system.
Using Passwords
If your workstation does not require operators to log on to the system with unique passwords, this section
does not apply to you.
If passwords are mandatory at your workstation, you will be required to log on to your keyboard controller
before you begin to use it. When you log on, you enter a six digit passcode on the numeric keypad of
your keyboard. The passcode has been pre-assigned to you by your system administrator.
Partitioning
Depending on which one of the workstation keyboards has been assigned to you, you may not have
access to certain video monitors. On the monitors of which you have free access, some system cameras
may not be viewable. Additionally, you may be able to view certain cameras, but not control their
movements. Such monitor and camera restrictions are referred to as partitioning. Partitioning decisions
are programmed by your system administrator.
Log On
If passcode entry is required on your 2078A keyboard, the letters “UC” (user code) appear in the
keyboard CAMERA display window. This code indicates you must enter your passcode before gaining
control of the keyboard.
Log on procedure:
1) enter your pre-assigned user number (1-64) on the keyboard’s numeric keypad.
2) press ACK.
3) enter your passcode on the keypad.
If an incorrect password has been entered press CLEAR, and then repeat step 3.
4) press ACK.
If the passcode does not verify, a tone sounds, and “UC” appears again in the CAMERA display. Press
CLEAR and repeat steps 1 through 4.
If the passcode verifies, the keyboard MONITOR and CAMERA display windows will clear. This confirms
that you have access to the AD168 system.
Log Off
When your shift is completed, it is advisable to log off from the system to prevent access to unauthorized
users.
Log off procedure:
Press the USER key (log off is complete).
