OSD Operation
OSD Overview
The On Screen Display (OSD) is a menu driven method to view and configure
the CN8000A’s basic settings. To display the Main Screen, tap the OSD hotkey
twice.
The default hotkey is [Scroll Lock]. You can change the hotkey to the Ctrl key
or the Alt key if you like (see
User Preferences , page 74).
Note: 1. If you use the Ctrl or Alt key method you must press the same Ctrl or
Alt key both times.
2. Once you start the OSD, the keyboard lock will be controlled by the
device. The number lock and caps lock will always be on when the
OSD is being accessed.
Before the OSD Main Screen comes up, a login dialog box appears requesting
a username and password. You must provide a valid username and password
to continue.
The first time that the OSD is accessed, you must use the default username and
password. The default username is
administrator ; the default password is
password . For security purposes, we strongly recommend changing these to
something unique after you log in for the first time.
After logging in with the default username and password, the OSD Main
Screen opens in Administrator mode. In this mode, you have administrator
privileges, with access to all administrator and user functions, and can set up
operations (including password authorization for the future), as you prefer.
