Setup Host Adapter(s)
No initial configuration of the Host Adapter is required for it to be identified by the User Station. Once discovered, it appears in
the list of CPUs in the Command Mode main menu. The name will appear as “PN:xxxxxxxx” where xxxxxxxx is the number found
on the Host Adapter case. The name can be edited later (see page 29).
Note: In order for the User Station to identify a Host Adapter and be included in the OSD list of connected CPUs (page
19) , the CPU must be powered-ON at least once. After the first powered-ON connection, the User Station will indicate
the status of the connected CPU, whether it is powered-ON or not..
Note: All Host Adapters must be programmed with firmware version 2.0 in order to work with a User Station programmed
with firmware version 2.0 and later. See “Please Note...” on page i.
Quick Connect to a CPU
For OSD menu Navigation guidlelines, see page 16.
From the Command Mode menu (page 19), to make connection to any Host Adapter in the daisy-chain,
press <

< Enter > to connect to it.
- OR-
use the mouse to highlight the desired Host Adapter to connect to and click on it to connect.
Press <

Press < Ctrl > + < ` > to return to Command Mode if desired.
Change or Disable “root” Auto-login
For security purposes, it is recommended that the Auto-login feature either be disabled or the Auto-login user be changed to a
user with fewer rights than the administrator.
To
disable the Auto-login, from the main menu, press < A > -< R >-< A >-< N >.
To
change the Auto-login, from the main menu,
-
press < A > -< U >-< A >-< Y >-< F10 > to first establish “ user1” with no Host Adapter access but no administrative
privileges
- press < A > -< R >-< A > and select “ user1” for Autologon. (Selection can be made using left mouse click or spacebar)
- press < F10 > to return to the main menu.
Press <
L > - < Y > to logout and return to a login prompt.
To return to the Command Mode menu via Auto-login, press < F1 >. You will be logged in as “user1” .
To login as the administrator, see below.
Note: If the PRIMUX is power cycled, the PRIMUX will now auto-login and open into the Command Mode menu with
user1 logged in.
Administrator Login and Password
To login as the administrator, from the login prompt, enter the administrator name and default password:
administrator name = <root>
administrator password = <nti>
Note: User names and passwords are case sensitive.
With a successful login, the administrator can setup additional users (see page 32).
FYI: The User Station can be configured to Autologon a specific user (page 35) with each User Station power-up or have
a Login splash screen appear for the user to login to the User Station.
NOTE: In PRIMUX units with firmware version 1.9 and earlier, the administrator name was “ADMINISTRATOR” and the
password was “NTI” (all upper case letters).
