Extron electronic DVS 304 AD, DVS 304 D manual Passwords

Passwords

The fields on the Passwords page are for entering and verifying administrator and user passwords. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper case and lower case alphanumeric characters. Each password must be entered twice; once in the Password field and then again in the Re-enter Password field. Characters in these fields are masked by asterisks (*****).

N The following characters are invalid in passwords: {space} + ~ @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : \ and ?.

If you do not want to password protect an access level, leave the Password field and the Re-Enter password field blank. After entering the desired password in both fields, click the Submit button.

As shown in figure 4-5 below, password-protected connections allow two levels of protection: administrator and user. Administrators have full access to all DVS 304 switching capabilities and editing functions.
