Setting Passwords
To set passwords, perform the following steps:
1. Move the cursor to the Set Supervisor Password selection and press
Enter. The Set Supervisor Password menu displays. From this menu,
the person setting up the password system can set the security
password. Users can set user passwords.
2. Move the cursor to the Exit menu, select Exit Saving Changes and
press Enter.
Note: Only clear a password after obtaining the permission of the
responsible supervisor.
If the supervisor password is lost, it can be cleared by shorting the
appropriate pins on the main processor board. For the location of these
pins, refer to the EasyPoint 7401 Hardware Service Guide.
If the user password is lost, and the supervisor is not available, then
the above procedure can be used to clear the supervisor password.
Then new supervisor and user passwords can be defined.
