7.2 Maintenance and Configuration Operations
The Status Display and Maintenance Tool running on the MLX200 Control
Module can be used to perform certain configuration and maintenance
operations such as changing IP address of the Control, retrieving log files
and performing backup and restore of the Control Module. These
interactive operations can be done either physically on the Control Module
itself by connecting a USB keyboard and USB mouse to the USB ports of
the Control Module, or through the Remote Display application running on
the User PC. Using the Remote Display application, the user can interact
with the {Maintenance Operations} screen using the keyboard and mouse
of the User PC itself. The following sections describe the procedure to
perform some of the available configuration and maintenance operations.
7.2.1 Logging in to Perform Maintenance Operations
In order to perform any interactive maintenance operation, the user needs
to log in to the MLX200 Control Module first. Click on the [Login] button in
the {Status Display} screen. This displays the login pop-up dialog as
shown in Fig.7-6 "Logging in to Perform Maintenance Operations".

button. If no password has been configured, the default password is
mlx200. The default password can be changed to a custom password as
described in Section 7.2.2 “Changing the Password of the MLX200
Control Module”. Once the user is logged in, the [Maintenance] button in
the {Status Display} screen will become enabled. Clicking on the
[Maintenance] button will take the user to the MLX200 Control Module
{Maintenance Operations} screen as shown in Fig.7-7 "Maintenance
