Norstar-PLUS Modular ICS 2.0 System Coordinator Guide
If you forget the administration or basic passwords, you cannot do 
any programming. Call your customer service representative to 
assign a new password.
The password is a one to six-digit number. It is advised to make your 
password at least six digits long for security reasons. If you press 
CHANGE
 but do not enter a new password, the existing password is 
erased. Anyone can then access programming without a password.
The default System Coordinator password is 
ÅΘȈ
, which 
is the same as 
¤‹fl›fl
.
One password cannot be a subset of another one. For example, you 
cannot have 123 and 12345.
Using a Basic password
In addition to a System Coordinator password, there is a Basic 
password. This lets you delegate some of the duties of being a 
system coordinator to someone else without allowing access to 
sensitive programming. 
The default Basic password is 
ıÅÍÈÇ
 or
 
¤¤‡›¤
.
You can enter the Basic password after the following feature codes:
ƒ••
 
Ë͉Â
 (User Preferences)
 
ƒ
 
••ÊȘ‰
 (to change the system time and 
date) 
Because the Basic password can be used to change the time, you 
should give it out with care and change it when necessary (for 
example, when an employee leaves the company). If restrictions, 
routing or other services operate on a schedule, changing the time 
can allow someone to bypass the programming. 
Registration password
The Registration password is used to control the registration of 
Companion portables to the Norstar system. See the 
Norstar-
Companion MICS-XC 2.0 System Coordinator Guide for more 
information.
