Logging into the WBM for the first time

2.
Enter the preset default password "admin" in the "Password" text box.
3.
Click the "Log in" button.
Reaction: The popup window is updated and you are prompted to change the default
password for the "admin" user.
Note: Alternatively, you can use the "Disable authentication" button to disable
authentication.
NOTICE
Security recommendation: Authentication
To ensure that no unauthorized persons can access the reader settings, we recommend
that you enable the authentication and create new user profiles. You should also read
the information under the "Passwords" heading of the "Security recommendations
(Page 7)" section.
The authentication can only be enabled/disabled by an administrator.
For more information on logging on to WBM and creating/deleting user profiles, refer to
the section "The "User management" menu item (Page 65)".
4.
If needed, select the primary interface connection over which you are operating the reader
from the "Operational environment" drop-down list.
5.
Enter your new password for the "admin" user in the "New password" text box.
6.
In the "Confirm password" text box, enter the newly selected password again.
7.
Click the "Log on" button.
Result: You are logged in to the WBM with the "admin" profile and can now set reader
parameters.
Operational environment
Depending on the selected operational environment, the interfaces, communication
channels, and associated services that match the mode are enabled beforehand. This restores
the parameter values for the mode to the factory default values.
This function increases the security of your device because all other interfaces,
communication channels and the associated services are disabled.
Regular login to the WBM
Depending on whether the authentication is enabled or disabled, you may have to log on
with your user name and the corresponding password. The WBM homepage opens after
logging on, even if authentication is disabled.
