Password Protection

To protect against unwanted/unauthorized change, two levels of password protection are provided: 

User

 and 

Factory

. The User level pass-

word is associated with common user-accessed parameters that can only be changed after entering the User password. The Factory level 

password is associated with more sensitive programming that can only be modified by the factory or its representatives. The dialog box for 

password entry is shown below. When prompted, type the password and then click 

OK

. The User password is: 2772. The password is also 

shown in this manual with the tab summary tables.

Configuration Software Basics 

The ST100 is set up using a configuration menu arranged in a hierarchical tree structure on the left side of the window. Select a menu item to see the 

related tabs on the right side of the window. Within the tab area parameter data is typically organized into one or more data fields, which are set off 

with a thin divider line or a thin box outline.
Many screens show 

Get from Device

 and/or

 Send to Device

 buttons at the bottom portion of the window. These buttons are shown if the window 

tab includes parameter data that can be retrieved from the instrument for display (

Get from Device

) and/or transmitted to the instrument for 

programming (

Send to Device

). The 

Send to Device

 button is normally grayed out (inactive) initially until a change is made in a data field. Once a 

parameter change is detected, the 

Send to Device

 button becomes active as shown by its solid appearance.

Note

Once the PC’s configuration software is communicating with the instrument, some HMI display items/menus are inactive due 

to control being handed over to the configuration application. For example, front panel selection of groups in the Service menu 

(HMI Setup mode) is inactive. Inactive HMI display menu items are shown with an asterisk (for example, 

Select Group*

). 

Click 

Disconnect

 to break the connection between the PC and ST100. Click the application window 

Close

 button or type ALT+F4 (with the applica-

tion window having the focus) to quit the application altogether.
