Set the Password for VNC Connection
The default VNC settings (no password) prevents you from establishing a VNC
connection to the terminal. You must set a view-only or control access
password before you can connect to the terminal with the respective access
rights.
Follow these steps to set a password for VNC connection to the terminal.
1. Press Enable/Disable to enable the VNC server.
2. Press Reset Password for either View-Only or Control access.
3. Type in the desired password using the on-screen keypad, then press
Enter.
IMPORTANT
Changing any VNC setting will terminate the current VNC connection to
the terminal. For example, if you are connected to the terminal in
control access and change the access to view-only, the VNC connection
will terminate and the next time you connect to the terminal you will be
in view-only access.
IMPORTANT
When you update the terminal firmware, the VNC password and settings
will be cleared and reset to their default configuration.
