Western Telematic MPC-20VS16-3 - Manual (Page 53)

5-22
Basic Configuration
In the default state, the MPC includes one predefined account that provides access to
Administrator commands and allows control of all of the MPC's switched power outlets.
The default username for this account is "
super" (lowercase, no quotation marks), and
the password for the account is also " super".
Notes:
• In order to ensure security, it is recommended that when initially setting up
the unit, a new user account with Administrator access should be created,
and the "super" account should then be deleted.
• If the MPC is reset to default parameters, all user accounts will be cleared,
and the default "super" account will be restored.
5.4.2. Plug Access
Each account can be granted access to a different selection of switched power outlets
(plugs) and plug groups. When accounts are created, the Plug Access parameter and
the Plug Group Access parameter in the Add User menu or Modify User menu can be
used to grant or deny access to each plug or plug group by that account.
In addition, each command access level also restricts the plugs and plug groups that
the account will be allowed to access:
• Administrator: Accounts with Administrator access are always allowed to control
all plugs and plug groups. Plug access cannot be disabled for Administrator level
accounts.
• SuperUser: SuperUser accounts allow access to all plugs and plug groups. Port
access cannot be disabled for SuperUser accounts.
• User: Accounts with User level access are only allowed to issue switching and
reboot commands to the plugs and plug groups that have been specifically
permitted via the "Plug Access" parameter in the Add User and Modify User menus.
• ViewOnly: Accounts with ViewOnly access are not allowed to issue switching and
reboot commands to outlets or plug groups. ViewOnly accounts can display the
On/Off state of plugs and plug groups, but are limited to the plugs and plug groups
specified by the account.
