Security
The Security option in the OSD General Settings Menu allows you to activate or deactivate
Password Security. By default, Password Security is set to Off. Only the Administrator will
be able to activate/deactivate Password Security.
To activate/deactivate Password Security:
1. Highlight the Security option in the OSD General Settings Menu
2. Press the space bar to change Password Security On/Off
3. Pressing the space bar will display a prompt requiring you to enter the Security Password.
(Security Password defaults as 'Admin')
4. Once you've typed in the correct password and hit enter, the Password Security status will
be changed
Note: Once Password Security is activated, Hotkey Commands will be deactivated, leaving
you limited to the OSD Menu as your only way to select a port. Once you leave the OSD
Menu, you will need to hit the 'Shift, Shift' command to access the OSD Menu and select
another port. You will be required to enter your password each time you enter the OSD Menu.
* See page 16-17 for more information on the Security features.
