Getting to Know Your Phone
U
ser mode/administrator mode
VTech phones can be operated in administrator or user mode. In administrator mode, all settings are accessible
and can be modified; in user mode, a number of settings are not accessible. The factory default is administrator
mode.
When the phone is running in user mode, the administrator password is required to revert to administrator
mode. The default administrator password is 0000 (4 x zero). We recommend that you change the password for
security reasons.
Note:
Do not forget your new administrator password; without it, a TFTP reset to factory values
is necessary to return the phone to administrator mode.
If your phone is administered centrally, user mode may be the rule. Please check with your
administrator.
User mode on the phone
The "Network" menu and various other settings are inaccessible in user mode. See "Settings" on page 31
.
User mode on the web interface
Some windows like
Preferences
are available in user mode while many others, like the identities, are not. The
menu item
Advanced
is available in user mode but the settings normally found on the
Advanced Settings
