6.5 Logging into the Sunny WebBox for the First Time
The Sunny WebBox distinguishes between 2 user groups: User and Installer. The two user groups
are distinguished by two different passwords. If the password is the same for both user groups, you
will be logged in as the installer. In order to prevent two users making changes at the same time, only
one user can ever be logged on to the Sunny WebBox at a time.
The user groups have the following rights:
