User access
This menu is where all of the user rights are managed. Cortex users can be added, deleted and their access rights can be precisely customized.
Note that many settings can be edited “in Bulk”. This feature can make configuring much quicker for system administrators. When doing bulk editing, some setting boxes might show-up as grayed-out: this means that these settings are not available for bulk edition. To access any grayed-out setting, edit users one at a time.
The table below shows the default users for the system along with their passwords.
| Username | Level | Password |
| viewer01 | Viewer | vvvvvvvv |
| oper01 | Operator | oooooooo |
| admin01 | Administrator | aaaaaaaa |
| super01 | Supervisor | ssssssss |
| direc01 | Director | mocivad9 |
It is VERY IMPORTANT that you change these default usernames and passwords, (and save your new settings in a secure location) to prevent unauthorized access to your Davicom unit! If you lose your passwords, Davicom’s support department will not be able to help you, short of performing a factory reset on the unit. Davicom does not have back-door passwords or special access privileges.
