Chapter 2: Installation and Start-Up

7. Display Security Logout. 

An example of the display is:

Whenever you save changes to any network parameter in this sequence, TimeVault 
automatically reboots (this does not include the DHCP, Remote Control, and Display 
Security functions). 

The Remote Control feature determines the availability of remote access to TimeVault.  
The default setting is “Unlocked”, which allows use of the Telnet or web interface for 
set-up and control operations (see Chapter 3 for how to set up Telnet, and Chapter 4 for 
how to issue F-series function commands).  You can lock TimeVault from a remote 
location using the F100 LOCK command, but after having done so, you can not remotely 
unlock it.  You can only unlock TimeVault from the keypad.  For more information, see 
“Keypad Entry Guidelines” above, and Section 4.4.13 “F100 LOCK – Remote Lockout” 
on page 4-76.

The Display Security feature prevents unauthorized users from setting or modifying 
TimeVault parameters.  When you first receive the unit, the security setting is off (factory 
default).  

To view the current security setting, scroll through the parameter list using the SET-UP 
push-button until Display Security appears.  To enable Display Security, press any 
directional push-button.  The security setting changes from “OFF” to “ON”.  You can now 
enter your user ID and password, as per the procedure described below.

Enter user IDs and passwords with the front panel directional push-buttons, as follows:

• Press the 

↑ directional push-button to start at the letter “i” and move backwards 

through the alphabet, symbols and numbers.

• Press the 

↓ directional push-button to start at the letter “r” and move forward 

through the alphabet, symbols and numbers.

• Press the 

← or  → directional push-buttons  to reposition the cursor.  During 

password entry, pressing the 

→ directional push-button not only advances the 

cursor position, but also changes the previously entered character to a “*”.   If you 
make an incorrect entry, reposition the cursor and re-enter the character.

To enter the user ID and password, follow these steps:

1. Press the SET-UP push-button until ID:/Password: appears, with the cursor posi-

tioned on the ID: line (the SET-UP push-button toggles cursor position between the 
two lines).
