5170 Quad-Ethernet Module Access Levels and Passwords 2-1
Access Levels and Passwords
The 5170 QEM has three different levels of web page user access. The importance of these levels varies based on the
interface method that is selected. The 5170 QEM is shipped with three preset usernames and default passwords. The
three usernames cannot be changed. All three passwords can be changed by the admin level user. All three users
(monitor, control, admin) can change their own password.
The 5170 QEM default password must be changed upon the first login. The Change User Password screen
appears. The new password must be 4 to 15 characters, and a combination of a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
If a user enters a wrong password three times, that username is locked out for one minute.
