Chapter 5. Operating the Library
Using Passwords
Spectra 10000 libraries have three levels of password protection.
System Administrator This person has the highest level of access to the library. Each library is shipped with a unique system administrator’s password. The system administrator can access all screens and library functions. You need the system administrator’s password to set the user password.
User This password is set by the system administrator and allows the user access to all library functions except the change password screen.
Note: The library is shipped without a user password; no security is enabled and everyone has access to all library functions.
To use the library’s security features, you must first create a user password, then use that password to control access to the library functions by locking the library screens.
Creating a User Password
The system administrator sets the user password and gives it to the appropriate individuals. The system administrator can change the user password at any time. However, simply setting the user password does not enable library security. See Locking Screens on page 74.
To set or change the user password:
1.From the miscellaneous menu, touch Change Password. The password screen appears.
2.Enter the System Administrator password, then touch OK. The library prompts you to enter a new password.
Note: You are not changing the System Administrator password, you are entering or changing the User password.
3.Enter a numeric password between 0 and 32767; touch OK.
4.Enter the password again to confirm the previous entry; touch OK.
