Setting Passwords
Many operations on the autoloader are password-protected to ensure data integrity. You can set passwords to administrator
level and to operator level. Operator-level users have access to the Commands and Status menus. Administrator-level users
have access to all functionality.
To set a password:
1. From the main menu, scroll to Configuration, and then press Enter.
2. From the Configuration menu, scroll to Set Password, and then press Enter.
3. To set a password to the operator level, scroll to Operator. To set a password to the administrator level, scroll to
Administrator, then press Enter. The Set Password screen appears.
4. Press Enter. If you are not logged in as Administrator, press Enter again to log in.
In the text box, scroll to the first character of the password. The cursor automatically appears at the first number of the
password.
5. At each position of the password, use the up and down arrows to change the value of each number. Press Enter to
advance the cursor to the next number.
NOTE: If you make a mistake, press Escape to backspace to the digit you want to change.
6. When you have entered six numbers, the autoloader displays Submit Password.
7. Press Enter to submit the password. Password Successfully changed appears on the LCD.
8. Press Enter. The Operator and Administrator options reappear. You can either enter another password, or press
Escape or Enter as necessary to return to the main menu.
Getting Lost Passwords
If you forget the administrator-level password, you cannot access the autoloader's functionality to enter a new password. In
this case, you must call support.dell.com. When you call, have the autoloader connected to the Ethernet and open the
Remote Management Unit.
NOTE: You can reset front panel passwords to the factory defaults from the Remote Management Unit. However, if the
Remote Management Unit passwords are lost, you must contact support.dell.com. If you must contact
support.dell.com, be at the host computer with the Remote Management Unit on line. From the main screen, click
Configuration. The Enter Network Password or User name screen displays. The customer support representatives
will need the number surrounded by asterisks to locate and reset your password. This is your "realm number."
