button - On the following user settings page select Change Password.
- In the change password input fields enter the new password in each of the two fields.
- Finally click the Save button.

On top of each page a module information summary is presented.
The status displays if the module is in running or in halted mode. It also
includes information about the current license status. If the module is
running in demo mode, the keyword DEMO is appended to the status.
The user that is currently logged in is presented in a separate information box.
Use the Logout button to logout the current user, close the session and
