Logging in

For receivers without the Enhanced Security option installed

Connect to the receiver via IP (ethernet, RNDIS, or Wi-Fi access point). Open a web browser with the appropriate IP address to access the web interface. When prompted, enter a username and password.

The default username is admin.

The default password is password.

NOTE – There is no option for recovering a forgotten password; this would be a security risk. The only way to reset the password is to apply a full factory reset Reset All Settings from the front panel. Select the Reset configuration option. Once the reset is complete, the default login credentials are:

  • User Name: admin

  • Password: <Serial Number> when connecting using ETH

  • Password: ‘password’ when connecting using Wi-Fi

  • If you are also locked out of the front panel, you will need to contact Trimble Support.

NOTE – For high-security applications, Trimble recommends using a firewall in front of the receiver. The receiver supports HTTPS connections; these are recommended. See HTTP Server Config.

Version 5.44 or later with the Enhanced Security (IoT) option installed

From firmware version 5.44 or later, the first time you access the receiver web interface you need to perform additional steps to set up a new password for the ‘admin’ login:

  1. Connect to the receiver via IP (ethernet, RNDIS, or Wi-Fi access point). Open a web browser with the appropriate IP address to access the web interface. You will initially see that the list of menu options are limited to Security and Firmware:

  2. When prompted, enter the default login username and password.

    The default username is admin.

    The default password is the serial number of the receiver.

  3. The Initialize Security screen appears. You are prompted to enter a new password. Use a combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and punctuation to obtain a “medium” or “strong” password; a “weak” password will be rejected. After verifying your new password, click Update.

  4. Ensure that you remember the new password as it is no longer possible to clear this password without direct physical access to the receiver. For more information, see resetting your password.

  5. If the receiver was set to factory defaults and Wi-Fi is supported on this device, the Access Point Configuration screen appears and you are asked to update the Wi-Fi access point settings. This provides you with an opportunity to review Wi-Fi encryption settings and adjust if necessary.

  6. After completing first-time initialization, you can adjust the security settings on the Security Configuration page. Refer to the help information for the Login IP Address Range (non-admin) setting.
