User management 
By default the recorder comes with three user accounts: an Administrator account, an 
Operator account and a Guest account. These accounts provide multiple levels of 
access and functionality. See Table 17 below for a description of the different user 
accounts. 
Table 17: User accounts 
  The administrator account includes extended menu with full access to all settings. 
The Administrator has the authority to add, delete or configure parameters for many 
of the system functions.  
There can only be one administrator. 
The user name is “admin”. The name cannot be modified. 
The default password is 1234. 
  The operator account includes reduced menu access to Video settings 
(inaccessible features are not visible).  
The default user name is “operator”.  
The default password is 4321. 
  The guest account includes menu access with no programming possibilities 
(inaccessible features are not visible).  
The default user name is “guest”.  
The default password is null. 
 
Caution: It is strongly recommended for security reasons that the default passwords 
are changed to strong passwords. They should have a minimum of eight characters 
and be a mixture of lower and upper case letters, numbers and special characters. 
Add a new user 
Only a system administrator can create a user. You can have a maximum of 16 users 
(the administrator as well as operators and guests).
