4.1.2 Password Recovery
Password Recovery is provided for cases where a user has forgotten the Superuser and/or
Administrator login password. Password recovery is accomplished by connecting to the unit serially
using a HyperTerminal like program and rebooting the unit. As the power-up sequence is occurring,
depress <Control> <C>. Upon receipt of this command, a text recovery key will be generated and
displayed prior to the prompt. This key is used to reset the passwords. An example recovery key
prompt is: 617A6185774$
You must call Datacom Service Center with this recovery key in order to obtain the required
response to reset passwords. Given a valid reset response, the factory default passwords will be
saved in Non-Volatile memory. If an invalid response is given, a new recovery key will be calculated
and displayed at the prompt, as described above, after first clearing the screen.
4.1.3 Basic Commands (Read Only Access)
The following section shows the long form of the basic command set with the shortcut input for the

heading, a brief overview of the command display function is given followed by an example
(Example: >) command input.
