Modifying your password
Passwords limit access to the TVR 10 and the same password can be used by several
users. When creating a new user, the default password is 0000. Each standard user
can modify his or her own password. However, only an administrator can assign or
unassign a password to a user. Specify an admin password of up to four digits,
ranging from 1 to 4, to allow you access to the system from the front panel and
without using the remote control or mouse.
Note: Keep the admin password in a safe place. If you should forget the password,
you must return the unit to a service center to be reconfigured.
To modify your password using the mouse or remote control:
1. Log on to the main menu.
2. Click User to display the User screen.
3. Select the target user name.
Click on a user or use the Up or Down Arrow buttons to select a user as shown in
the figure below. Click the Password edit box to enter into edit mode.
4. Enter the new password.
Use numeric buttons to enter the new password. Passwords can be up to 16
numeric characters. The password edit box can be left blank. This indicates that
the selected user does not have a password.
5. Verify the new password.
Click the Verify edit box, and enter the new password again to verify the change.
In the edit box, use the Left or Right Arrow button to move the cursor and press
DEL to delete the numeral in front of the cursor.
6. Click Confirm to accept the change and return to the main menu.
