5.7.7.5 Security
PURPOSE
To set user protection levels to restrict access to certain functions and to edit the
password required for changing user levels (see Section 3.2.26.5).
OPERATION
[Settings], <Preferences>, Security
accesses the PPC4 Security screen. PPC4 is
delivered with no active password and access to the Security screen is open. The
security level is set to
Low
. Security levels can be changed freely until a password
has been created.
To change the Security level, access the security screen,
[Settings],
<Preferences>, Security
. If there is a password in place, the Password screen
will be displayed. Enter the password at the prompt “Enter Password:”. If no
password has been entered the Security screen will be displayed immediately,
bypassing the Password screen.
Note
At the bottom left of the Password entry screen is a code (SN:
sss-nnnn). The first part (sss) is the PPC4 serial number. The
second part (nnnn) is a numer that is changed each time the
secondary password is used (see 3.2.26.5).
Select
and
Enter
a Security from the choices,
Off, Low
or

opens the password editing screen. Passwords
can be up to six numbers in length and cannot start with a zero.
If

to enter a password to access the user level menu. This condition, with a security
level of
Low
, is the factory default.
Caution
Once a password has been entered, the user level cannot be
changed without reentering the password or the secondary
password.
Note
The factory secondary password is available in case the user’s
password has been misplaced or forgotten. It can be obtained
by contacting a DHI Authorized Service Center (see Table 36).
The factory secondary password is different for all PPC4’s and
changes each time it is used.
