Logging on
The TVR 10 is shipped with one predefined user for the system administrator. The
default system administrator log on uses “admin” as a user name with a password of
1234. You can modify the admin password but not the admin user name. We
recommend that you change the admin password once you have completed the
installation and setup to protect against unauthorized access. The administrator can
create up to 15 users and define their privileges. For more information, see “
User
settings” on page 41.
