users is no password. Simply press
Enter at the prompt. If you
confi gure an administrator password from this menu, your system will
then be in secure mode. A lock symbol will appear to the right of the

Logout Capability You have the option of automatically logging out of the system after
an administrator defi ned period of inactivity. Time-out values can be

Ø
keeps the user logged in continuously. When the time-out is
reached, the current channel is deselected and the display goes to
the login prompt. Users must log in again to access system
computers. This option is only available in secure mode.
