Password Security
Note:
Defaults —
Identifier: Super
Supervisor: 00000 (None)
Identifier: Opera
Operator: 00000 (None)
The Anatel A643a’s operational modes (Setup, Manual and Print) can be password protected
to prevent unauthorized users from accessing any of the instrument’s configuration or control
parameters, as well as its printout functions. The Anatel A643a allows two levels of password
security: a Supervisor who has access to all functions and an Operator who can alter
everything but the password entries and the
Log Setup Menu (see “Internal Log” on page 114 )
which contains the instrument’s audit trail.
The optional passwords are equipped with a required Identifier to trace accountability. Any
parameter changes are recorded in the Analyzer’s internal log for later retrieval and are
automatically output to the printer (assuming one is attached). These records include the time,
the parameter and the date of the change in addition to identifying the person authorized to
make the modification.
By default, no passwords are defined (indicated by settings of 00000 ), thereby allowing
complete access to all personnel. A password, once enabled, is constrained by a 90-day limit.
In other words, active passwords must be changed every three months. An alarm code is
issued three times a day—at 12:00 AM, 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM—when the assigned limit has
expired. This code will continue to be displayed (and printed) until the Supervisor changes the
current password settings. To further enhance this security feature, the same passwords
cannot be used in two successive 90-day periods.
Note:
Settings of 00000 for the Supervisor and the Operator disable this security feature.
To establish a supervisory Password and Identifier:
1) With the desired Analyzer selected in any View, press the Setup Key to display its
submenu.
2) Use the Up and Down Keys to specify Sensor Setup .
