CHANGING SECURITY LEVEL Screen

 - 

Change the security level 

 

 
There are two levels of security available in the DIR911: HIGH and LOW. If the DIR911 
is set to low security, there is no password protection. If it is set to high security, you can 
only edit the DIR911 configuration information by entering your password. High security 
is most useful when only one person (e.g., a supervisor) should have access to the 
DIR911 configuration and operators are not permitted to change any settings. High 
security is the factory default setting.

Autorestore feature (default is 0.25 seconds).. Press “DONE” when DIR911 
configuration is complete.
