Storing required data permanently
Any data that is to be available for subsequent sessions with the R&S
FSW, such as
predefined instrument settings, transducer factors or self-alignment data, must be
stored on the instrument permanently,
prior to activating the secure user mode
.
Self-alignment data
Note that self-alignment data becomes invalid with time and due to temperature
changes. Therefore, to achieve optimal accuracy, it may be preferable to perform a
new self-alignment at the start of each new session on the R&S
FSW.
Restricted operation
Due to the fact that permanent storage is not possible, the following functions are not
available in secure user mode:
●
Firmware update
●
Activating a new option key
Activating and deactivating secure user mode
Only a user with administrator rights can activate the secure user mode. Once activa-
ted, a restart is required. The special user "SecureUser" is then logged on to the
R&S
FSW automatically (using the automatic login function, see
on page 29). While the secure user mode is active, a message is displayed
in the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
Secure Passwords
By default, the initial password for both the administrator account ("Instrument") and
the "SecureUser" account is "894129". When the secure user mode is activated the
first time after installation, you are prompted to change the passwords for all user
accounts in order to improve system security. Although it is possible to continue with-
out changing the passwords, it is strongly recommended that you do so.
You can change the password in Windows 7 for any user at any time via "Start > Con-
trol Panel > User Accounts".
In order to deactivate the secure user mode, the "SecureUser" must log off and the
"Instrument" user (administrator) must log on.
Switching users when using the automatic login function
In the "Start" menu, select the arrow next to the "Shut down" button and then "Log off".
The "Login" dialog box is displayed, in which you can enter the different user account
name and password.
The secure user mode setting and automatic login is automatically deactivated when
the "Instrument" user logs on. The "SecureUser" is no longer available.
