CPM Security
When you open a Control Panel in CPM, the Connector Control may attempt to connect to an Impact device
or Emulator. If security is enabled on the device, the User LogOn dialog is displayed. You must enter a valid
user ID and password to connect the Control Panel to the device. If you do not log on, you can still modify
the Control Panel, but you will not be able to update any data or images on the Control Panel.
Note: Impact device security is independent of the security enabled by the CPM Password control. (See
“Password” on page 4-56 for details about the Password control.)
See “Impact Device Security Overview” on page 2-13 and “Device Security” on page 4-110 for more details
about CPM security.
