Security for a Multi-Media System
Re-Entering a Site Definition for a Unit with a System Password
TIP! When a system password is in use and a site is deleted by mistake, you need a few
extra steps to re-enter the site definition.
1. While adding a site (see Adding a Site on page 35 ), click LVP. A Reset Last Valid
System Password dialog box appears.
2. Enter the system password that was securing the unit in the unit Password field.
3. Confirm the password.
4. Click Save and Close.
Checking if the Correct System Password Was Entered
Use View to start a session. If the site cannot be accessed, you may have made a mistake
entering the password in the previous procedure.
User Password
1. Using Admin, click the Users tab to view the list of users.
2. To update a user’s account, double-click the name in the User Name column. The
Update User dialog box appears.
3. Enter the password in the Password field. A double-quote (“) character cannot be
used in a password.
4. Re-enter the password in the Confirm password field.
5. Click either:
• Save and Close, to update the user’s password.
• Close, to cancel the update. You will be asked to confirm that the changes are to
be ignored. Click OK on the message.
6. Communicate the new password to the user(s) of the account.
Results
After the Multi SA assigns a password to a Multi-Media unit operator:
• The Password column shows
set
for that user.
• A password must be entered at every logon. Entering an illegitimate user ID/password
combination produces a warning message.
• At the first log on to the View application, a local copy of the Multi Central database is
made to the PC running View.
• A user cannot change the password while using View. Only users of the Admin
application can change a password.
