Logging In

The login dialog is displayed when PhonePad starts up.  

 

 LoginDialog

 

When logging in for the first time, use the default administrator account to login:

 

Username:        Admin

 

Password:        admin

 

The username is not case-sensitive but the password is.  Make sure CAPS LOCK is not on.

 

Once you have typed in your user name and password, click OK to continue the login process.  You will be given three attempts to login.  After a third unsuccessful attempt PhonePad will automatically shut down.

 

If you click on the "eye" icon and hold down your mouse button, it will reveal the password you entered.  You can use this to verify that you entered your password correctly.

 

Notice the I forgot my password link on the login dialog?  This is a feature that you can enable for users and yourself.  PhonePad can send the password to a user's email address or cell/mobile phone.

 

The login dialog also displays the IP Address of the PhonePad 5 Server you are connected.  This can be useful if you have multiple PhonePad 5 Servers on your network.

 

The PhonePad version number is also shown on the login dialog (it is 5.18.0 in this example).
