Chapter 4: Serial or Telnet I/O Functions

Login/Logout

4.5Login/Logout

There are two levels of login: “operator” and “guest”.

4.5.1Operator Login

Use the Operator login to run function requests and entries, change settings and perform software updates. As shipped, and whenever the unit is started in BootLoader Mode, you can access the Operator level with:

User Name: operator

Password: mercury

To maintain security, change the Operator password at installation.

If you are logged in as “operator”, the only serial or Telnet function that you cannot perform is to change the Guest password.

4.5.2Guest Login

Use the guest login to view function requests. As shipped, you can access the Guest level with:

User Name: guest

Password: truetime

To maintain security, change the Guest password at installation.

If you try to use a function that is not accessible from the guest login, you will see a message such as Access denied or Command canceled.

4.5.3Logout

You can logout using any of the standard logout commands, as follows:

logout

logoff

exit

quit
