When a password is set for a clock, each time you click OK or Apply for that clock you
will be asked for the password. You may create a unique password for each clock. You
may enable the ‘Remember this password for the session’ checkbox to eliminate typing
the password for each configuration change.
WinDiscovery will not remember or store the password (s) after the session is closed. It is
important for the user/system administrator to maintain passwords in a safe place.
If you enter the wrong password and selected the “remember password” checkbox, you
will receive an error upon selecting OK or Apply to any configuration changes. You can
close the WinDiscovery session to “forget” the password(s), however this will require
entering the password again for each device. Alternately, you can remove the incorrect
password entry during a WinDiscovery session by going to the right click menu for the
device and selecting Forget memorized password option. This option will be added to
the right click list and will only be displayed if a password is memorized.
[Note: the factory default password is: “public”]
[Hint: To remove password protection for a clock, select the Set Password
command. You will be prompted to enter the old password. Enter the old password.
Do not enter anything into the New Password or Confirm Password fields. Click OK
to save. Upon you next session, you will not be prompted for a password for the
clock.]
[Helpful Hint: Use the global password feature to avoid entering and remembering
individual passwords during each WinDiscovery session. See the appendix for
additional information]
