Managing Passwords
When you first startup your system, you are technically logged in as the ADMIN (system
administrator) account. The system supports the following account types:
• ADMIN—sys
tem administrator: has full control of the system, and can change both
administrator and user passwords and enable/disable password protection.
• USER—normal user: only has access to live viewing, search, playb
ack, and other functions.
You may set up multiple USER accounts with varying levels of access to the system.
For security reasons, it is highly recommended to enable passwords on your system. If you
enable passwords, y
ou must select a 6-digit ADMIN password. By default, the system
password is disabled.

To enable the admin password:

You do not need to enter a password to access the system using the browser-based remote
