6- Change the Administrator Password
Now that the Encoder is visible on the network, we recommend that the administrator password is changed from the default
to prevent unwanted access.
See section
12.2-User Management
for details on the features used in this step.
A. Select Config Button in the upper right hand corner of the Main Encoder Interface.
B. Select User Management in the left side menu.
C. Select Edit next to the admin username in the user list at the bottom of the screen to open the User Setup window.
D. Edit the Username (if desired) and New Password, confirm the new password.
E. After selecting OK, the user login window will open. Enter the new password to continue.
7- Configure User Accounts to Access the Encoder
There are 2 levels of users, Administrator which is the default admin account, and Guest accounts. The admin account is
the only account that can be set as an administrator. An unlimited number of Guest accounts can be added that can view
and control the function of the Encoder, but will not be able to access or modify any of the Encoders settings.
Access to the Encoder varies based on the level:
Administrator
Has access to all functions of the Encoder including configuration.
Guest
Has access to view the Encoder, and has limited control for saving recordings, and photos. No configuration
is allowed for the guest level. Guests attempting to access to the Encoder configuration will be prompted for
the Admin username and password.
Note: Once a username is created it cannot be edited, only the password can be changed. If a username needs
to change, it will need to be removed, and a new name created.

image to be right side up when viewing. Installations where the Encoder is mounted on a shelf or other flat surface (dome
facing up), the video image must be flipped.
