To set the user authentication, you have to register the user setting (user name and password) in advance (Refer to Registering a User Setting).
To enter the administrator mode of PageScope Web Connection, you need to enter the administrator password. For details about the default administrator password, refer to the [Quick Guide]. If you cannot log in with the default password, contact the administrator.
