Logging in to viewLinc
When you are ready to start using viewLinc, log in to viewLinc from
any PC with an Internet browser using the default “admin” account
(this is a User account with Full Control). The username and
password are both “admin”.
Note: The default Admin User is part of the default ADMIN
Group. For security purposes, it is important to change the
admin password as soon as possible (see “Editing Users and
Passwords” on page 43).
You also need to create accounts for other Users, specifying their
username, their Email address, availability schedule (times they
should receive alarm notification), their Rights and Access Control
Permissions, the Channels they can view, and their authentication
method (if they will use a viewLinc login or use the same login as
their Windows login). For more information see, “Controlling Access
to viewLinc” on page 35.
To log in to viewLinc:
1 Double-click the desktop icon .
2 Or, in the address box of a supported Internet browser, enter
the name or address of the machine where viewLinc is
installed, and the port number. Your administrator will provide
the correct address.
For example, http://computername:portnumber or https://-
computername:portnumber if secure (if no port number is spe-
cified, 443 is used by default). Save this address to your
favorites or set as your homepage to easily access viewLinc
from your browser.
3 In the login screen, select your language from the language list.
When a new language is selected, the page will automatically
refresh and update accordingly.
The default administrator username and password are both
“admin”.
