Access levels
Master password ( + )
The obligatory master password has the highest level and
allows access to all functions. The editing of the safety circuit
diagram in particular is only possible if the master password
has been entered. Each easySafety device must have a
master password. For this reason, you are requested to
assign a master password when entering the safety circuit
diagram for the first time. The easySoft-Safety configuration
software works in the same way. For this the master pass-
word must be assigned in all cases when adding a device in
Project View.
Safety password ( | )
The safety password protects the viewing of the safety
configuration. You can assign the password if required, for
example, if you wish to protect your know-how. The safety
password is also advisable if there is a danger of third-
parties examining the safety configuration in order to bypass
or manipulate it. Without the safety password, the safety
configuration can be viewed at any time but not modified.
The master password is always required in order to edit it.
If the safety password is assigned and if this is active, the
printing or display of the safety configuration in the circuit
diagram, communication and simulation views of easySoft-
Safety is only possible of the safety or master password has
been entered. The safety password does not allow the modi-
fication of the safety configuration.
