shown in Figure 17, will display. The login box appears when a Unit is powered on, when a user logs off, or when a
preset time interval passes with no keyboard or mouse activity. If a login is required, type in your User ID and press
[Enter]. (User ID is the user name defined on the configure user menu) If the user ID is validated, you can then type
in your password and press [Enter]. If the password is validated, the user station can be accessed. A user may login
with the same user ID and password at more than one user station. Both the User ID and password are case
sensitive.
