Whenever you save changes to any network parameter in this sequence, TimeVault automatically reboots (this does not include the DHCP, Remote Control, and Display Security functions).

The Remote Control feature determines the availability of remote access to TimeVault. The default setting is “Unlocked”, which allows use of the Telnet or web interface for set-up and control operations (see Chapter 3 for how to set up Telnet, and Chapter 4 for how to issue F-series function commands). You can lock TimeVault from a remote location using the F100 LOCK command, but after having done so, you can not remotely unlock it. You can only unlock TimeVault from the keypad. For more information, see “Keypad Entry Guidelines” above, and Section 4.4.13 “F100 LOCK – Remote Lockout” on page 4-76.

Entering the User ID and Password

You cannot change the ID and password via the keypad, only via F100 commands.

The Display Security feature prevents unauthorized users from setting or modifying TimeVault parameters. When you first receive the unit, the security setting is off (factory default).

To view the current security setting, scroll through the parameter list using the SET-UPpush-button until Display Security appears. To enable Display Security, press any directional push-button. The security setting changes from “OFF” to “ON”. You can now enter your user ID and password, as per the procedure described below.

Once you enable the Display Security feature, it remains “ON” until you manually disable it.

Enter user IDs and passwords with the front panel directional push-buttons, as follows:

Press the directional push-button to start at the letter “i” and move backwards through the alphabet, symbols and numbers.

Press the directional push-button to start at the letter “r” and move forward through the alphabet, symbols and numbers.

Press the or directional push-buttons to reposition the cursor. During password entry, pressing the directional push-button not only advances the cursor position, but also changes the previously entered character to a “*”. If you make an incorrect entry, reposition the cursor and re-enter the character.

To enter the user ID and password, follow these steps:

1.Press the SET-UPpush-button until ID:/Password: appears, with the cursor posi-

tioned on the ID: line (the SET-UPpush-button toggles cursor position between the two lines).
