Administrator Login and Password
To login as the administrator, press <L> to logout as NEW_USER1 and the login splash screen will appear. While holding down the <Shift> key, enter an administrator name and default password:
administrator names = ROOT or ADMINISTRATOR (either can be used) default administrator password = NTI
With a successful login, the administrator can setup additional users (see page 24).
FYI: The User Station can be configured to Autologon a specific user (page 29) with each User Station power up or have a Login splash screen appear for the user to login to the User Station. The administrator can also configure the User Station to autoconnect a user to a specific Host Adapter at logon by configuring the Logon Host and Action on Logon in the Edit User menu (page 25). For more on setting up users, see page 25.
Setup Host Adapter(s)
No initial configuration of the Host Adapter is required for it to be identified by the User Station in the segment. Once discovered it appears in the segment, and the Master Authority assigns the Host Adapter its Unique ID value. This value is used to
¾set its identity for the security allow/deny access attribute (page 26)
¾set its identity in the list of Host Adapters/CPUs that can be scanned in Scan Mode (page 19)
The Unique ID is stored in the Host Adapter and saved there, even if power is removed.

press <Enter> again to connect to it.
use the mouse to select the desired Host Adapter to connect to and click on it to connect.
Press <X> or <Esc> to exit Command Mode and use the connected CPU connected to the selected Host Adapter. Press <Ctrl> + <`> to return to Command Mode (see pg 13).
