Setting and Changing an Administrator Password:
Use the
Configuration/Setup Utility program to set or change an administrator password.
You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for the
password.
Important
Keep a record of your administrator password in a secure place. When an
administrator password has been set, you cannot access the Configuration/Setup
Utility program without first using the administrator password. If you lose or
forget your password, you cannot change or delete it without removing the
computer cover and moving a jumper on the system board. Refer to “Erasing
Lost or Forgotten Passwords” on page 60 for further information.
