Security
The Security menu choices control access to the program-
ming menus by using individual logins for three levels:
Administrator, Process Engineer, and Setup.
The table below shows what access each security level
has. In addition the Operator column shows the access a
generator operator would have when the three levels of
control are in use.

NOTE
Operator - Usually the operator does
not need to use the Security feature.
Typically an operator only monitors the
weld cycle using the Operate and Graph
screens.

Remote User Timeout
The purpose of this option of the Security menu is to
yield (allow) or deny access to the programming features
of the
iQ
generator under certain conditions.
This feature is most useful when a remote user (using
iQ
Explorer II
software) and a user at the generator might
both want to control the generator. A request for control
(by either user) shows on the generator display and on the
remote computer display. (See Figure 5-85, Page 92.)
If no response is given (by either user) to this request
within 30 seconds, then in whatever state the generator
had been left (
Deny Control
or
Yield Control
) before the
request for control, that is the state in which the generator
will continue to operate.
Example
: A remote user requests control of the genera-
tor, and no one is at the generator to respond to the
request. If the generator had been programmed to yield
control, then after 30 seconds, the remote user would
have control.
Access (to program the generator),
is assigned to the Administrator as
a default setting if no passwords
have been set.
NOTE
The default setting for Remote User Timeout
is Deny Control.
