Reset Credentials If for some reason, you cannot access
the decoder (due to a forgotten
password, corrupted data, and so on),
the recovery procedure for the
decoder is as follows:

the front panel menu. A default login
username and randomly generated
password will be displayed on the
front panel display for approximately

replaced by a login
username/password chosen by the
administrator. To change the
username and password, you must be
an Admin user. Refer to
Setting

all existing user accounts will be lost.
