F5 ADM:

F5 allows an Administrator to configure the OSD operation of the Console. To
change a setting Double Click it; or use the Up and Down Arrow Keys to move
the highlight bar to it then press [Enter].

Note: 1. To avoid Administrator conflict, a priority system has been set up in

which, by default, Console 1 has priority over anything attached to
Port 1; Console 2 has priority over anything attached to Port 2;
Console 3 has priority over anything attached to Port 3; and Console
4 has priority over anything attached to Port 4.

2. Only one Administrator may access the F5 ADM (Administrator)

function at a time. If a second Administrator attempts to access the F5
function while it is already being accessed, he is denied access, and a
message appears on screen to inform him of the rejection.

After you select an item, a submenu with further choices for you to select from
appears. Double Click the choice you want, or move the Highlight Bar to then
press [Enter]. An icon appears before the selected choice so that you know
which one it is. The settings are explained in the following table:

Setting

Function

SET PASSWORD

This function is used to set passwords for the Administrator
and User:

1. One Administrator and four User passwords can be set.

2. Move the highlight bar to User or Administrator, then press

[Enter]. A screen that allows you to key in your password
appears. The password may be up to 8 characters long,
and can consist of any combination of letters and numbers
(A - Z, 0 - 9).

3. Key in the new password, then press [Enter]. You are

asked to key the password in again, in order to confirm
that it is correct.

4. Key in the new password again, then press [Enter]. If the

two entries match, the new password is accepted. If the
entries do not match, you must start again from the
beginning.

5. To modify or delete a previous password, use the

backspace key to erase individual letters or numbers.

6. If the Administrator wants to change a User's password,

he must enter his Administrator's password first.
