SECURITY
CHANGE LOCAL PASSWORDS
As outlined in the previous section, there are two user security access levels, setting and command. Use of a password for
each level controls whether users can enter commands or change settings.
Proper password codes are required to enable each access level. When a
CHANGE COMMAND PASSWORD
or
CHANGE
SETTING PASSWORD
setting is programmed to “Yes” via the front panel interface, the following message sequence is
invoked:
1.
ENTER NEW PASSWORD: ____________.
2.
VERIFY NEW PASSWORD: ____________.
3.
NEW PASSWORD HAS BEEN STORED.
To gain write access to a “Restricted” setting, program the
ACCESS LEVEL
setting in the main security menu to “Setting” and
then change the setting, or attempt to change the setting and follow the prompt to enter the programmed password. If the
password is correctly entered, access is allowed. Access automatically reverts to the “Restricted” level according to the
access level timeout setting values and when power is cycled.
Change remote passwords
Proper passwords are required to enable each command or setting level access, which are explained in the previous
section.

CHANGE REMOTE PASSWORDS
To set the command or setting password in EnerVista:
1.

Change
button.
3.
Enter the new password in the
New Password
field. Requirements are outlined in the Password Requirements section
earlier in this chapter. When an original password has already been used, enter it in the
Enter Password
field and click
A command or setting write operation is required to update the state of the remote and local security operands
listed.
When a setting password or command password is set or updated, user access with a graphical front panel is
removed. Simply log in again on the graphical front panel.
When the setting password is set or updated, the graphical front panel Access Level displays as Command. This is
because the graphical front panel is a Modbus client and it does not have automatic access to the password
change.
