If the
Password
matches the value stored in the device, DX Navigator opens the unit’s Device
Window. By default the
Admin
and
User Passwords
are blank. Therefore if the P
assword
for
a
Permission Level
is blank, simply clicking the Login button gives the user de facto
permission for that selected
Permission Level
. Renaming
or editing the device settings (see
Edit Operations
) also requires you to login if you have not previously done so during the
current DX Navigator session.
NOTE: If you are a system administrator and desire to secure access to the hardware, then be
sure to setup the
Admin
and
User
Passwords
from the Device Window’s Settings tab after you
first login to the device.

sensitive.
Naming Devices
Description
Each DX device can be given a unique name which is stored in the device’s non-volatile
memory. Whenever DX Navigator establishes a communications connection with a device, it
reads the device’s name and displays it in the Found Devices tab next to the unit’s Device
Icon. The
Device Name
also appears in the Title Bar of the unit’s Device Window. By default
the
Device Name
of all DX devices shipped from the factory are blank.
Likewise, designs can also be given unique names.
Design Names
are displayed in the Title
Bar of Design Windows. Dragging a Device Icon from the Device Library into the Design tab
creates a design named “Untitled DX1208”; dragging a device from the Found Devices to the
Design tab creates a design named “Copy of [
Device Name
]”. To preserve the identity of
devices and designs, names are not overwritten when one unit is dropped or pasted onto
another (see
Edit Operations
).
