Logging In
All exacqVision servers are shipped with two operating system accounts:
1. Username: admin
Password: admin256
Privileges: computer administrator
2. Username: user
Password: user5710
Privileges: restricted user
NOTE: Exacq recommends that the default passwords be changed by the operator and written and secured to prevent
unauthorized access or modifications to the system. As part of the initial exacqVision System configuration, Exacq
recommends that the operator configure a new user on the exacqVision Server with restricted privileges and change the
exacqVision Client settings in the user operating system account to connect to the local exacqVision Server via this user.
See the Users section of this manual or the context-sensitive online help file for instructions on creating a new
exacqVision user.
When exacqVision servers start, they immediately start the exacqVision service, boot into the user account, and start the
exacqVision Client software. Server log-in is not required to start video recording or communication with client PCs. All
third-party servers start the exacqVision service on startup, but user accounts and automatic login must be manually
configured.
The user account functionality is limited to using the exacqVision client software for maximum reliability. All server
maintenance tasks (such as shutting down the exacqVision service) that are not performed within the exacqVision Client
require logging into the operating system’s administrator account.
Each operating system user account maintains separate settings for its exacqVision Client. These settings include
usernames, passwords, and network addresses required for exacqVision Clients to access exacqVision Servers. By default,
both the user and admin operating system accounts have settings that provide administrator access to the instance of
exacqVision Server running on the local computer, which is always via the localhost (127.0.0.1) IP address.
Exacq recommends that all servers be configured with one system administrator account with Remote Desktop
(Windows) or SSH (Linux) remote access for system support.
The exacqVision Server can be accessed from multiple exacqVision Clients, which can be running from the same
computer as exacqVision Server or from remotely networked computers. The exacqVision Server has been preconfigured
with one user.
