Operation with No Options Key

controller). At a minimum, the operator must obtain and install at least one permanent

Step 6: Change Passwords
To ensure system security, the administrator should select the admin account and enter
a new password. User accounts should also be created to allow monitoring of the Ellipse
without access to configuration settings.
Important
: It is difficult to restore access following a lost administrator password. It is
recommended to always record the administrator password and store this information in
a physically secure location for future reference.
