Password Management
Changing the Admin Password
This section provides information about managing your password in the Admin
Mode and User Mode.
You can change the Admin Password by doing the following:
1.
Enter Admin Mode (refer to page 9 for details).
2.
Press and hold + 9 until the indicator light flashes blue.
3.
Enter the new password and press (The Password must be a minimum of
6 digits and a maximum of 16 digits). The indicator light flashes green three
times. See note below.
4.
Re-enter the new Admin Password and press . The indicator light stays solid
green for two seconds and then solid blue indicating that the Admin Password
has been changed successfully.
Note: If the indicator light flashes red three times, this indicates that the
password is less than 6 digits or more than 16 digits. Enter a
password that contains 6 – 16 digits after the indicator light flashes
blue intermittently.
1.
If the indicator light flashes red intermittently and then blue
intermittently, go back to step 3. This is due to one of the following
conditions:
•
You waited longer than 10 seconds before entering a password.
•
The new password was entered incorrectly.
2.
If no activity is detected within two minutes in the Admin Mode, the
Aegis Padlock will return to the Standby Mode.
