11-4 ASCII Command Interface BE1-CDS220
ACCESS Command
Purpose:
Read/Set Access level in order to change settings
Syntax: ACCESS[={password}]
Example: ACCESS=CDS
Comments: The ACCESS command must be used before any changes to settings can be made.
Available ACCESS privileges are summarized in the following paragraphs.
READ-ONLY: This is the default access privilege when no passwords are active. Read-only access
allows you to read settings and reports but not make settings changes.
PRIVILEGE G: GLOBAL ACCESS. Global access is obtained by password G (PWG). Global access
permits entry of any command with no restrictions.
PRIVILEGE S: SETTING ACCESS. Setting access is obtained by password S (PWS). Setting access
allows changes to any settings.
PRIVILEGE C: CONTROL ACCESS. Control access is obtained by password C (PWC). Control access
enables relay control operations.
PRIVILEGE R: REPORT ACCESS. Report access is obtained by password R (PWR). Report access
enables report operations to be performed.
An access privilege is obtained only when the appropriate password is entered. When a valid password is
entered, the relay responds with the access privilege provided by the password entered. If an invalid
password is entered, an error message is returned. If password protection is disabled in one or more
privileges, then entering any string will provide access to the unprotected privileges.
Note: In examples throughout this manual, relay responses are printed in
Courier New
typeface.
ACCESS Command Examples:
Example 1. A valid password is entered.
>ACCESS=OPENUP
ACCESS GRANTED: GLOBAL
Example 2. An invalid password is entered.
>ACCESS=POENUP
ACCESS DENIED
Example 3. The current access privilege is read.
>ACCESS
ACCESS: GLOBAL
EXIT Command
After changes are made, the new data is saved or discarded using the EXIT command. Prior to saving or
discarding any changes, you must confirm that you wish to exit the programming mode. There is three
exit options: Y (yes), N (no), or C (continue).
EXIT Command
Purpose:
Exit programming mode
Syntax: EXIT (Note: Relay will prompt for verification.)
Example: EXIT
Comments: It's important to make all programming changes before executing the EXIT command.
This prevents a partial or incomplete protection scheme from being implemented.
When access privileges are obtained, all programming changes are made to a temporary, scratchpad
copy of relay settings. These changes aren't saved to nonvolatile memory and initiated until the EXIT
command is invoked and confirmed. After the EXIT command is entered, the relay prompts to confirm that
the new data should be saved. Three options, Y, N, or C are available. Entering Y will save the data. If N
is entered, the relay will clear the changes and resume operating with the old settings. Entering C will
abort the EXIT command and allow programming to continue.
