What to do if the ADMIN password has been forgotten

If the ADMIN password becomes mislaid or forgotten, you will not be able to access the AdderView CATxIP 5000 to add or edit users and computer names, unless you have given other users admin privileges. This situation may be resolved by performing a complete reset to return the AdderView CATxIP 5000.

IMPORTANT: A complete reset erases all the user names and computer names that you have setup.

To clear a password (and restore factory default settings)

1Remove power from the AdderView CATxIP 5000 unit.
