User Password
The user password feature is optional and if used allows the user to create a password of 4 to 8 characters,
including alphanumerics and special characters (20 hex through 7e hex). ‘Restore defaults’ restores the
password to "admin", but note that if power has been cycled since a successful login one cannot get to
‘restore defaults’ without knowing the password.
**Note: Power cycle is required when completed.
The user password feature is available in firmware version 8.09 and subsequent.
For security reasons forgotten passwords can only be reset to factory defaults with the physical return
of the switch to N-TRON or to an authorized N-TRON distributor.

Note that when a user password is defined, the password prompt will ask
“Enter User Password” instead of “Enter Password”:
Login - (Enter Username)> admin
Username is correct.
Login continued - (Enter User Password)>
