Administrator: A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all DVS
scaling capabilities and editing functions.
•
User: Users can select test patterns, mute or unmute the output, select a blue
screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the scaler
is delivered with both passwords set to “carriage return.”
