Grass Valley GV STRATUS Installation v.3.1 - Manual (Page 58)

Set credentials
Prerequisites:
• Identify the default credentials SiteConfig uses to access devices.
• Identify the credentials required to access your site's devices.
1. At each local device, view the Windows administrator user account and verify that the credentials
are the same as those that SiteConfig uses to access the device.
2. If necessary, change credentials so they match on the device and in SiteConfig, using one of the
following methods:
• Change the device's credentials to match the credentials that SiteConfig uses to access the
device. This is recommended for most K2, GV STRATUS, and Aurora devices.
• If your security policies prohibit changing the device's credentials, such as on PCs on the
corporate LAN, in SiteConfig change the credentials that SiteConfig uses to access the device.
