Hi,
I had been playing with NI900 few days ago. I was thinking to use the PC to load the G3 panel inside the NI900. After giving a several try and i finally manage to get it loaded with the G3 touch panel layout. Using the usual NetLinx and password login option while FTP into Ni900. I had successfully get it up and running. But problem comes when i try to play around with the security setting. And I cannot even connected into the device using serial or LAN. But I still manage to connect via open the NI900 from the web browser.
I wandering how log into the device? any administrator password??? How can i solve this???
Please help.
Regards
Alvin

    The standard would be
    User: Administrator (or administrator ;) )
    Pass: password

    The user "administrator" is always existing, and has alway access to any setups, including security.
    The user and pass above would also work on terminal/telnet.

    From programming port, you additionally have access to a security setup menu, by calling "setup security" (w/o quotes). This setup is NOT available from telnet!

    But if you have changed the admin's password and you can't remember, the NI900 must be send to repair. There is no hidden password or backdoor.

    Thank you : )

    Hi Marc,
    Thank you very much for you info. Everything back to original now.
    I think i still would like to create a user account so that they will only can log into the web page for control purpose without modifying any of the setting. And maybe not to allow them what was actually inside the controller. So when they link to the controller via explorer it will automatically launch the java and load the control page. Is it possible to do this?

    You can "hide" the default webpages by creating your own webpages. The startpage must be named index.htm or default.htm. Here you will need a link to to the webcontrol subfolder. An automated call of the webcontrol is possible e.g. by auto forwarding to /panelsubfolder/index.html

    Create an index.html file, containing: 
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>
	<title>This is my NetLinx Master</title>
	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; URL=/webcontrolfolder/">
</head>

<body>
You will automatically be forwarded to WebControl in 3 seconds.<br>
If forwarding will not work, click <a href="/webcontrolfolder/">here</a>.


</body>
</html>
    Written from memory.... hope it works.

    The default pages are still existing, and can directly be reached by the direct link
    http://<url of NI master>/web/http/default.html

    Removing your index.htm/default.htm from the webserver will bring back the default pages for start.
