NOTE
If you wish to restore the original configuration, archive your sample data
before doing so (see Chapter 13 for information on using the Database
Manager software). Then copy the original SAMPLES.MDB file from the
CD-ROM to the database directory corresponding to your operating
system (see table, previous page).
Follow the procedures in the next several sections of this chapter to
verify/edit the instrument and calibration settings to ensure that they
conform to the actual characteristics of your
CANNON
®
instrument.
Configuration protection
It is not necessary to log in to view current instrument settings. However,
to change the configuration settings, you must log in to the security
system as a manager. The software is installed with a default Manager
account. This account has no password, allowing any operator access to
manager-level software functions as long as the password is not acti-
vated/changed. If you would like to engage the full-release security
options, see Security Options in Chapter 4 for instructions.
