To Replace a Unit when a System Password Is in Force

Tip

This procedure to replace a unit applies only to replacing a unit at a site that has been defined and is operational.

The procedure does not apply to adding a new site to your Multi system. To simply add a site to your system, see Naming / Renaming a Site on p. 24.

1.Check that the Multi-Media unit is powered-up at the site.

2.Using Admin, update the site's definition.

3.Click LVP (last valid password). A Match the Password at Unit dialog box appears. Note the asterisks in the Password and Confirm Password boxes.

4.Remove the asterisks from the Confirm Password and Password boxes.

See figure 10–5, above. This does not remove your system password from other units.

5.Click Save and Close.

6.Using View, start a Maintenance Session for the site.

7.To set the unit to your system password, click the Security tab and update security.

8.Tell any logged on View Operators that they need to refresh the Multi db to use the new site. See Refreshing a Local Database, on p. 244. Occasional users need not worry; their local database is automatically refreshed the next time that they log on to View.

If the site cannot be accessed

You may have left asterisks behind in the Password and Confirm Password boxes.
