OPERATIONNAL MODES

Once the 

SYNCHRO COMPACT

 is switched on, you can access the menu on 3 different levels (

To access the password page, press ESC.):

SYNCHRO COMPACT

. Press «ENTER» to switch to password 

mode. Press  

«↑» 

 to change the character; press 

«→» 

to move to the next character level 1 password «1». 

NOTE

 : The level 1 password gives you access to minimum settings recommended to start your commissioning on your power plant, is the equivalent of standard mode on 

the i4Gen Suite software.

 

·

Level 2

 : Just press «ENTER» to go to Display menu. Press 

«↓»

 to select «configuration or «system» of the
