Changing the admin password

The admin user has access to the entire system. Changing the password for this user on a frequent and regular basis is a powerful best practice for maintaining a secure system. This procedure uses the web UI.
Prerequisites: You are logged in to the station with admin privileges. This procedure documents a task performed in both the Supervisor PC and remote controller stations using the system’s browser interface. The alternative Supervisor station command is in parenthesis.
  1. Navigate to Controller Setup (System Setup) > User Management > Change Password.
    The Change Password view opens.
  2. In the New Password property, type a new strong password.
  3. To confirm that you typed the name correctly, type the new password again in the Confirm New Password property, and click Save.
    If the two values match, the system implements the change.
  4. To return to the home view, click Home.
 TIP: Your system should be set up with more than one user that has admin rights in case someone loses the admin password.
