3.4 Configuration

The parameters of this menu can only be modified after entering the “Login” and “Password”. The
following screen is proposed automatically:

Login and password by default are: MGEUPS

Each field accepts up to 10 characters max.
After entering the login and password, these identifiers remain active as long as the browser is
open, so you only have to enter them once.
If the browser is closed, they will have to be re-entered.

Tick the “Save this password in your password list” box if you want to avoid systematic re-entry.

An error in either field results in systematic rejection of the requested action (save, page access,
card reboot, etc.). After three unsuccessful attempts, the browser must be rebooted.
These two fields do not travel “uncoded” on the IT network, they are encrypted with an MD5 type
algorithm, ensuring total confidentiality.
