The administrator name and administrator password are set using the Camera Management Tool.
Note
• Only administrators can connect to a camera using the Setting Page.
• When IE ESC (Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration) is enabled in Windows Server, the blocked content dialog box
may be displayed when attempting to access the Setting P5age or the viewer. If this happens, please register the camera IP
address as a trusted site (P. 32).
Switching to the Administrator or an Authorized User
If [Basic] > [Viewer] > [Viewer Settings] > [User Authentication] is set to [Do not authenticate] on the Setting Page, an
authentication screen is not displayed when connecting to the Viewer, and you can use the Viewer as a guest user. Guest
users cannot perform some operations with the Viewer, but you can also switch the user in order to use the Viewer as an
administrator or authorized user.
Important
• Change the administrator password periodically to enhance system security. Do not forget the new password.
• Restore factory default settings if you have forgotten the administrator account (P. 225). However, you will become unable to
connect to the camera because the administrator account is also initialized. Use the Camera Management Tool to configure the
initial settings.
• It is strongly recommended that you clear the [Remember my credentials] checkbox when an authorized user shares a Viewer
on the same computer.
