Password security: The Power Xpert SPD is shipped with fac-
tory default user authentication credentials to allow for initial
installation and configuration. However, factory default authen-
tication credentials are often well known, easily discoverable
and present a significant security risk; therefore, the admin user
name and admin password should be changed at installation to
increase cybersecurity protection.
1. Limit access to the PX-SPD to reduce cybersecurity risk.
2. The maximum number of users that can be setup is six.
3. User names should be 5 characters in length or more.
4. Password expiration is configurable, the default is set to 90
days.
5. Up to three users can access the PX-SPD simultaneously.
Admin users assign a role to new users from one of four pos-
sible roles under the User Management tab through the web UI.
