3.3.2Logging Into the System

The first step in starting a user session is to log into the system. You must enter a password that allows you to perform the required tasks on the system. For access levels and user permissions, refer to the section detailing user access in Section 4.3.2 on page 3 of Chapter 4 IMACS-200 General Features.

To log into the system from a local terminal, proceed as follows. To log in from a remote PC refer to details later in this reference manual.

1.Press <Enter>. The Login Screen depicted in Figure 3-2should appear. If not, press <Enter> again until it does.

2.If the Login Screen does not appear after you press <Enter> several times, check your terminal settings (they should be 9.6 kbps, eight data bits, no parity, and one stop bit).

3.Contact your system administrator for your Username and Password. Enter your Username, and press either the <enter> or <tab> key. Then enter your Password and press RETURN to accept the password, which will allow you to configure your system after logging in for the very first time. Refer to Section 4.3.2 on page 3-3 for descriptions of the various user levels.

4.Should you be the system administrator, the default Username is admin and the password is admin. As this constitutes a Superuser access, it is highly recommended that this default password be changed to prevent unauthorized access and enhance the security of the IMACS-200. Refer to Section 4.3.2 on page 3 of Chapter 4 for further information.
