Changing the Administrator Password

Note:

If you forget the Admin Login password, you’ll need to reset the device to its default settings and go
through the device setup. See "What Do I Do if I Forgot the Administrator Password?" on page 117.

1.

Log in to the home page.

2.

Click

Advanced settings > Device > Basic

.

3.

In the

Admin Password

field, type the new password (1–20 characters/numbers).

Automatic Login (“Remember Me”)

If you enable automatic login:

Anyone who uses the computer will automatically be logged in to the home page (as long as
no one else has already logged in from another computer); entering the administrator
password is not required.

The timeout security feature is disabled — you will never be automatically logged off.

To enable automatic login:

1.

From the computer that you want to enable automatic login, log in to the home page.

2.

In the login area, select the

Remember me

check box.

You can repeat the above steps on other computers; however, since only one administrator can
be logged in at a time, only the first person to display the home page will be logged in.
