Initial start-up of the Mastercycler pro
During the initial startup of the control panel you can define an administrator PIN in order to protect the
system against access by unauthorized persons. These data are saved in the control panel and are not lost
when the Mastercycler pro is switched off.
5.2.1
Defining the administrator PIN
If no administrator PIN has been defined, you are prompted to do so.
CAUTION! Loss of data due to misuse or loss of administrator PIN.
The administrator PIN protects the system from undesired access to its configuration and to
the stored data of all users.
Make a note of the administrator PIN and keep it in a safe place. If you lose the
administrator PIN, contact Eppendorf Service.
Allow access to the administrator PIN only to persons who are allowed to edit the
configuration of the system and who have the knowledge required to do this.
If you do not want to use the user management option, you do not have to define an
administrator PIN. In this case, leave the input fields of the
Input Admin PIN
window empty
and deactivate the
PIN
function. Further information on user management is provided
separately
