Set Operator Passwords


Sign On Screen -> Main Menu -> SET PASSWORD button -> Set Operator Passwords

Once the Operator ID's and passwords have been setup in Operators the passwords may need to be occasionally altered.

To change your password click on the SET PASSWORD button on the Main Menu.
This program is designed so that each operator can change his/her own password, without being able to change someone else's.

Note: When the external 'Authentication' feature is enabled in the Texada Support Parameters this "Password" control processing is disabled and the operator is redirected the to the User Management Menu on Texada Web.

The prompts are:

OPERATOR CODE
The operator code of the person logging into this terminal will display, and cannot be changed.

OLD PASSWORD
For verification, correctly type in the old password in order to replace it with a new one.
This helps to ensure that only the person assigned that Operator code can change their password.

For security purposes, when the password is entered it will NOT display on the screen, but will display as asterisks instead.


NEW PASSWORD
Type in the new Password.
This will not actually display for security reasons.

A password cannot match the operator sign in code or the sign in division, and must contain both alpha and numeric characters.
Further password requirements can be set in the Password Controls security utility.

Random Password Generator:
Click the Create icon (green plus symbol) beside the New Password field to cause the system to provide a random password that will be much harder for a hacker to discover.
The suggested password must then be manually typed in and confirmed to activated it for the operator.


RE-ENTER NEW PASSWORD
Type in the new Password again.
This verifies that the new password typed in above is correct.

Finished?
Click ACCEPT to accept the new password and proceed or click CANCEL to abort the password change.

When a password is expired an audit record is written to track the change in Audit Log Inquiry / Export.
