The administrator user account cannot be deleted or modified with the exception of its
password. Only a user with "Change Admin Password Access" rights can change the
administrator password.
The NetLinx user account is created to be compatible with previous firmware versions.
The administrator group account cannot be deleted or modified.
The FTP Security and Admin Change Password Security are always enabled and cannot be
disabled.
Logging Out of a Terminal Session
It is very important to execute the 'logout' command prior to disconnecting from a Master.
Simply removing the RS-232 connector from the Program Port maintains your logged-in status until you
either return to logout via a new session or reboot the target Master.
