Managing Passwords

ATTENTION: By default, the system user name is admin and the password is 000000. Passwords are disabled by default and are not required to access the Menu Bar or Main Menu. However, you may be asked for a password to access certain functions.

By default, you do not need to enter a password to access the system using the browser-based remote software.

When you first startup your system, you are technically logged in as the ADMIN (system administrator) account. The system supports the following account types:

•ADMIN—system administrator: has full control of the system, and can change both administrator and user passwords and enable/disable password protection.

•USER—normal user: only has access to live viewing, search, playback, and other functions. You may set up multiple USER accounts with varying levels of access to the system.

For security reasons, it is highly recommended to enable passwords on your system. If you enable passwords, you must select a 6-digit ADMIN password. By default, the system password is disabled.
