Logging in and outThe AdderView CATxIP 5000 features a straightforward security system that
helps to prevent unauthorised access to some, or all connected computers.
If the security option has been selected by your administrator then you will be
asked to enter a User Name and Password when you first access a user port.
When you have finished using the computer, it is then good practice to logout,
forcing any other users to authenticate themselves prior to use.
Note: If the security option has not been enabled then no login is required.
