The Management OSD comes with an advanced password security system that contains 3 different security
levels. Each security level has different access rights to the system.
These levels are as follows:

The Administrator can:
Set and modify all Passwords and security profiles
Fully access any computer
Use all OSD functions
Supervisor (Status S) - Middle
The Supervisor can:
Fully access any computer
Access the following OSD functions only – F1 Moving the Confirmation label. F4 Scan and F5 Tune.
User (Status U) – Lowest
There are 6 different Users in the Phantom system. Each User has a Profile that defines the access level to
different computers. There are 3 different access levels. These are:
Y – Full access to a particular computer
V –Viewing access only, to a particular computer (No keyboard/mouse functionality)
N – No access to a particular computer – A TIMEOUT label appears if access is attempted
The Administrator defines the desired access levels of each User Profile. This is done in the OSD Setup
window. By default the User Profile settings are full access.
NOTE: There can only be 1 Administrator password, 1 Supervisor password, and 6 User passwords.
