and press <Enter>. An input box will then appear requesting confirmation
of the password. Re-type the password and press <Enter>.
You will be prompted for a password whenever you access the
configuration menu (<Ctrl> F12).
Access password:

<Enter>. An input box will appear for you to confirm the access password.
Re-type the same password and press <Enter>. You will be prompted for
an access password whenever the Vista switch is powered on or you have
disconnected from a computer.
To remove a password, highlight configure password or access password
and press enter to clear the password field. Press enter again with no
password input and the password will be removed. The configuration
password must be entered before passwords can be changed or removed.
If you forget your “Access password”, the person who knows the configure
password can enter a new “Access password” for you. If you forget your
“Configure password”, contact Rose Electronics Technical Support for
instructions.
