Passwords
Quick Start tip: You may wish to skip the Password table when you first configure the
system. If password levels are needed they can be added later.
The Jupiter passwords are arranged in a hierarchy, with the “99” level password being the equivalent of a supervisor password.
Entry of a 99−level password on the main menu (page 5−2) will allow any system operation, including starting the Jupiter
software and creating or changing passwords. There must be at least one 99−level password in the system at all times. In Figure
5−18, Boss Bill might have a password of “007007” with a level of “99.”
In addition, a password level can be established for each control panel and each switcher output. Bill’s control panel has an
inherent password level of 80 and the switcher output leading to VTR1 has a level of 60. This means that anyone using Bill’s
control panel would be able to select a source for VTR1. Notice that the panel could also be used to select a source for QC
but not for the Lobby monitor.
