The password of the current user can be changed by entering the current password and the new password.
Two-factor authentication with time-based one-time password (TOTP) algorithm can be used. When this option is enabled, a QR code is displayed that needs to be scanned by a TOTP generator (e.g. FreeOTP or Google Authenticator). The Allegro Network Multimeter and the TOTP generator will generate a one-time password independently which needs to be given at login. Both devices needs to be time synchronized (e.g. via NTP). With 4.1 this is also possible for administrators and third-party accounts.

Both Allegro Network Multimeter and a TOTP generator (e.g. smartphone app) will generate a one-time password independently.  


Please note that the time of both devices needs to be synchronized (e.g. via NTP). You will be asked for this password in the login dialog.
Starting from version 4.1 this is also possible for administrators and third-party accounts.
