Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 upper case and lower case
alphanumeric characters. Each password must be entered twice: once in the password
field and then repeated in the re-enter password field. Characters in these fields are
masked by asterisks (*****). If you do not want to password-protect an access level,
leave the password field and the re-enter password field blank. After entering the desired
password in both fields, click the
Submit
button.
NOTES:
•
The program will not allow you to create a user password unless you have already
created an administrator password.
•
If a password has been inadvertently changed to an unknown value, you can still
connect to the switcher via the RS-232 link, which is not password protected.
When connected via the RS-232 link, using either SIS commands (see the
“
” section on page 33) or under program control (see
” section on page 51), you can look up and, if desired,
change a password.
ISS IP Settings Fields
The ISS IP Settings fields provide a location for observing and editing settings unique to the
Ethernet interface. After editing any of the settings on this page, click the Submit button.
ISS IP Address field
The ISS IP address field contains the IP address of the connected ISS. This value is
encoded in the flash memory on the controller circuit board.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields separated by dots
(periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3
digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your
installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
ISS Name field
The ISS name field contains the name of the switcher. This is helpful in identifying the
switcher in multiple-unit networks. This name field can be changed to any valid name, up to
12 alphanumeric characters.
Hardware Address field
The hardware address (also known as the MAC address) is hardcoded on the controller
board and cannot be changed.
