5.1.3.1.1 Password Recovery
If for any reason, the password for access to the WCM is lost, the unit may be cold started
by using bit switch 8 which will return the unit to the default factory configuration. The
default factory password is the product name, “wcm1000”, “wcm3100” or “wcm-serial”.
Note, that returning the unit to factory default will erase the configuration memory and all
configuration items including IP address will be lost.
5.1.3.2 ‘View’ User
The WCM supports two levels of access: admin and view. An Admin user has full access
rights over the WCM configuration. A view user has read only access to the configuration.
In some cases it may be desirable to prevent the “view” user access.
To disable the view user access, select the View User menu item and toggle the option to
disabled. It will now not be possible to log in with the “view” password.
5.1.3.3 Super Me
The super me option will raise the user level to super user which will enable some extra
diagnostic and debug screens.
5.1.3.4
Where greater access control and security is required, the WCM units support
for central password authentication.
