• If you have previously installed a full version of SQL Server 2008 R2, Service Pack
2, you should create an SQL named instance of Emerson2008 prior to installing
AMS Device Manager (refer to your SQL Server documentation). Otherwise, the
AMS Device Manager installation will install SQL 2008 R2 Express, Service Pack
2.
A Microsoft SQL Server 'sa' account password is required for AMS Device Manager
operation. Therefore, the AMS Device Manager setup creates a password
(42Emerson42Eme) for the Emerson2008 named instance. For security reasons, it is
recommended that you change the SQL password.
To change an SQL Server ‘sa’ account password on your AMS Device Manager station:
1. Insert the AMS Device Manager program DVD in the DVD drive of the target PC.
2. Select Start > Run from the Windows taskbar.
3. In the text box, type CMD and click OK to open the command prompt.
4. At the command prompt, type: 
D:\SNAP-ONS AND TOOLS\TECH_SUPPORT_UTILITIES\
CHANGE_SA_PASSWORD\SQLPASWD_SQLSERVER <oldpassword>
<newpassword>
Where:
D is the DVD drive letter
<oldpassword> is the default (42Emerson42Eme) or other current SQL password
<newpassword> is the password you want to use
5. Press ENTER. You should see the message "The SA password in SQL has been
changed from oldpassword to newpassword."
6. Close the command prompt.
