Logging on
The TVR 30 is shipped with a predefined user for the system administrator. The
default system administrator logon uses “admin” as a user name with a password of
1234. You can modify the admin password but not the admin user name. GE Security
recommends that you change the admin password once you have completed the
installation and setup to protect against unauthorized access. The seven predefined
standard users are labeled User1 to User7 with a default password of 4321 and level
4 access. The administrator can customize these users and define their privileges. For
more information, see “Managing users” on page 49”.
To log on to the TVR 30 user interface:
1. Click Menu.
2. Select a user in the Account field.
3. Use the mouse or the Down Arrow button to select the Password field.
4. Enter the corresponding password.
5. Click Confirm to enter the main menu.
