If this is the first time the NRC has been turned-on, once the NRC has completed its
initial system boot-up process, the NRC system LCD graphics files will be uploaded into
the LCD display. The NRC’s LCD display will indicate which LCD memory location the
current image is being uploaded into and once this image upload process is finished, the
LCD display will be activated and display 8 channel status windows above the status
message “www.aegis-inc.net”.

7. Once the NRC has reached this stage, the user should then login to the NRC via the
remote terminal.
Note: If you login before the NRC system has completed the LCD image file
upload and the LCD display isn’t displaying the 8 channel status icons, the
NRC file system will be in a read-only state. This will mean that none of the
NRC configuration changes available through the NRC Configuration Utility
will be able to changed.
8. Login as root, with the Aegis shipped root password set to aegisnrc. The option on how
to change the password will be discussed shortly. Once logged in, the following NRC
Configuration Utility will appear.
