and the respective user roles. In this case ABB will set-up the CMES with the agreed user ac

counts. After delivery it’s mandatory to change at least the user passwords.

In case the users and roles are not defined from project, 2 default users are installed:

Administrator and Operator.

This is also valid when the MNS Digital Edge is ordered as spare part.

Default login credentials are:
