Change the password!
VOLT’s factory default password is omnia (all lower-case). We urge you to change this as soon as
possible!
Hackers have been breaking into all sorts of network equipment – not only at radio stations – by
assuming that users haven’t changed the default password. Please make life harder for them!
VOLT passwords can be up to 16 alphanumeric characters. Spaces and special symbols are not
allowed, but words can be separated by an underscore.
We suggest you mark the new network address and password on a sticky note or label near
VOLT’s front panel, for easy reference

.
If you lose the password, the only way we can restore it is by opening the top cover and shorting
a hardware jumper on the main system board.
You can have multiple VOLTs on the same network, if they have different IP addresses. If need-
ed, they can share the same password.
At a Web Browser
In most installations, VOLT can be controlled by any browser on the same network, by using
the right IP address and password. Sophisticated IT users can configure the network to restrict
access even with a password, or extend a virtual network beyond your station’s plant.
VOLT uses HTML5, without Java or other plug-ins. Any modern browser should be able to
access it from a computer, tablet, or smart phone. Log in by entering VOLT’s IP address in the
browser’s address bar. Just the four numbers, separated by periods, are necessary. This will take
you to a password entry page. Enter the password you stored in VOLT’s front panel.
♦
Some browsers may display an
insecure password
or
Not Secure
warning when you try to
enter the password. This is because VOLT does not have the kind of verified digital signa-
ture used by web commerce servers. You can ignore these warnings.

6 If an evil-doer can read the note, then they’re close enough to the hardware to damage your signal—with or
without a password. If your station shows off its racks where the public can see it through a window, cover the
note or put it somewhere else that’s handy.
