If
an

password
is
set,
you
must
type
the
administrator
password
for
access
to
the
full
Configuration/Setup
Utility
menu.

characters
(A–Z,

Resetting
passwords
If
you
forget
the
power-on
or
administrator
password,
you
can
change
the

position
of
the

jumper
on
the
system
board
to
bypass
the
power-on
or
administrator

check.
This
enables

delete
the

the
next
time
you
start
the
