Managing Passwords
13
WARNING
By default, the system user name is admin and the password is 000000. Passwords are required to ac-
cess the Menu Bar or Main Menu or to log into the system remotely.
• ADMIN—system administrator: has full control of the system, and can change both ad-
ministrator and user passwords and enable/disable password protection.
• USER—normal user: only has access to live viewing, search, playback, and other func-
tions. You may set up multiple USER accounts with varying levels of access to the
system.
For security reasons, it is essential to create a custom password for the system.
13.1 Enabling and Changing Passwords
You can change the system password of user accounts from the Users menu.
To enable the admin password:
1. Right-click to open the Menu Bar and click the Main Menu button (
).
2. Click System and select the Users tab.
3. Select the checkbox beside admin to change the admin password, then click the Edit
button.
