Access Setup
An additional dimension of security is provided by the ability to restrict the control available through the
DECS-250 communication ports. At any given time, only one port can be in use with read or higher
access. For example, if a user gains settings access at one port, users at other ports will be able to gain
no higher than read access until the user with settings access logs off. This screen cannot be accessed
when in Live Mode.
Port Access Configuration
Communication port access is configured in BESTCOMS Plus on the Port Access Setup tab (Figure 155)
of the Device Security Setup area. To configure communication port access, perform the following steps.
