EX7000 Series Web Page Operation 35
Entry This type of page displays and accepts changes to the configuration of the instrument.
The Time Configuration page is an example of an entry page.
Use of the entry-type web pages in the EX7000 are governed by a common set of operational
characteristics:
• Pages initially load with the currently-entered selections displayed.
• Each page contains a Submit button to accept newly entered changes. Leaving a page before
submitting any changes has the effect of canceling the changes, leaving the instrument in its
original state.
• Navigation through a parameter screen is done with the Tab key. The Enter key has the same
function as clicking the Submit button and cannot be used for navigation.
Password Protection
Once connected to the EX7000, the user should define a password. No password is defined by
default. To create a password, click on the Change Password link in the command menu, then
enter the desired password in both text fields. From this point forward, pages that modify
instrument configuration (e.g., SFP) require this password to initially login. It is only necessary to
enter a password once per session.

2) This password mechanism provides only the most basic security. Applications requiring
additional security should consider using private, dedicated subnets, firewalls, etc. to limit
access to the instrument on the network.
