Does it not tell you in the mannual ? ( I'd look but the link you gave doesn't want to resolve for me at the moment )

Probably though you'll find yourself wanting to reset the password (generally pretty simple as long as you have physical access, again 'procedure' should be in any mannuals), as if the previous guy has done his job right, it should have gotten changed (the default account & password) mind if he were doing things right, your password list would be secure in some safe or such ..

This is what I found, but no username of pass:

This is the installation & configuration document for this device's series.

& a quick whizz through seems to say there is no default password & user name, & that when it got shipped, it would have come with those details, which is absolutely no help whatsoever !

However I read on a bit & did some clicking off the link I just gave you & I found this bit, which is a bit more helpful
