Access Web Based Management

  • We recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0 or later/Microsoft Edge for Windows, Safari 12.0 or later for Mac, Google Chrome™ for Android (4.x or later), and Google Chrome™/Safari for iOS (10.x or later). Make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in whichever browser you use.
  • The default password to manage this machine’s settings is located on the back of the machine and marked "Pwd". We recommend immediately changing the default password to protect your machine from unauthorized access.
  • If the password is entered incorrectly several times, you will not be able to log in for a while. The lockout settings can be changed in Web Based Management.
  • We recommend using the HTTPS security protocol when configuring settings using Web Based Management. If you use HTTP when configuring settings using Web Based Management, follow the screen prompts to switch to a secure HTTPS connection.
  • When you use HTTPS for Web Based Management configuration, your browser will display a warning dialog box. To avoid displaying the warning dialog box, you can install a self-signed certificate to use SSL/TLS communication.
