Registration

Changing the System Administrator Password

Note

When the video network station is shipped from the factory, the system administrator’s user name and password are set to “root” and “pass”. As all units are programmed with the same settings at shipping time, you should change the password as soon as possible.

Enter the new administrator’s password in the [Admin password] field and again in the [Confirm password] field, then click the “Save” icon. A valid password consists of up to eight characters, consisting of a-z, A- Z and 0-9.

Registering a User

With the default setup as shipped from the factory, any user on the network can access the video network station. There is no need to register users if access is to be permitted to anonymous users. However, if access is to be limited to specific users, register the users by the following procedure. If more than one user is registered, video network station connections are password protected.

1 Enter a user name to be registered in the [User name] field of the [Add user] item, and enter their password in the [User password] and [Confirm password] fields. A user name may be up to ten characters long, and a password up to eight characters long, both consisting of a-z, A-Z and 0-9.

2 Place a check in the [HSR Control] checkbox if the user has permission to control the HSR-1/1P and HSR-2/2P.

zHint

The [CTR] button appears in the HSR view to users for whom this box is checked. Clicking the [CTR] button accesses the “HSR CONTROL” page. Refer to “HSR View Mode” on page 33 for information about controls for HSR View and the HSR-1/1P/2/2P.

Note

HSR-1/1P/2/2P password-protected functions such as Key Lock on/off are accessible from the “HSR CONTROL” page. Access permission to the “HSR CONTROL” page should be considered very carefully.
