Lolbrad 0 Posted March 20, 2021 Hi All, we have an onyx falcon which was a replacement screen for a faulty one we had. We’ve never installed/configured it and the password recommended to use on the instructions isn’t working. Is there an engineers over-ride we can use on the admin username ?

We plugged it in but never configured it. Had new fitted wardrobes put in and just never bothered connecting the cameras back up..... until now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolbrad 0 Posted March 20, 2021 We thought we might of changed the password it we’ve tried all of the 3 possibilities we would have used, and we never changed the under name as it o my gives us admin as an option. it’s a home security system, not commercial.

tomcctv 190 Posted March 20, 2021 Hi it should also say retrieve password Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolbrad 0 Posted March 20, 2021 Yes it does but then asks for an answer to a security question, but there’s no question in the drop down pick list ? It gives the option for a dynamic password?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FuncBrutha 0 Posted March 20, 2021 I’m in exactly the same boat. Hope you don’t mind me piggybacking. Changed my password and have now forgotten it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what happens if you choose dynamic your recorder puts up a code I need that code you can call onyx but they will ask you the same and also the manufacture the same we’re are you located Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we choose dynamic code we get a new window with a device model number, then the MAC address, then the current time. Then an empty field saying dynamic password.
