Local Administrator versus Active Directory Accounts
Some of the operations described in this manual require Administrator rights.
Log on either as the local Windows administrator, or using your Active Directory account that is a
member of the group
“cti-login” with authority to access this device. The
local Windows administrator
account set up by Motorola for Windows 7-based devices is “secmoto”.
NOTE: Active Directory account login is recommended, if available.
