Specifying Administrator Privileges

To specify administrator authentication, set "Administrator Authentication Management" to [On]. If this setting is enabled, administrators can configure only settings allocated to them.

To log in as an administrator, use the default login user name and password.

For details about logging in and logging out with administrator authentication, see Administrator Login Method and Administrator Logout Method.

Important

  • If you have enabled "Administrator Authentication Management", make sure not to forget the administrator login user name and password. If you forget an administrator login user name or password, you must specify a new password using the supervisor's privilege. For details on supervisor privileges, see Supervisor.
