58-610 Model R82 Radar Transmitter
2.6.5 Password Protection (Default = 0)
The Radar transmitter is password protected to restrict
access to certain portions of the menu structure that affect
the operation of the system. The password can be changed
to any numerical value up to 255. The password is required
whenever configuration values are changed.
The default password installed in the transmitter at the
factory is 0 (password disabled). The last step in the config-
uration menu provides the option to enter a new password.
If 0 is entered as a password, the transmitter is no longer
password protected and any value in the menu can be
altered (except diagnostic values) without entering a con-
firming password.
NOTE: If the password is not known, the menu item New Password
(Section 2.6.6.1 Level Measurement Only, item #35; Section
2.6.6.2 Volume and Level, item #39; Section 2.6.6.3 Flow and
Level, item #41) displays an encrypted value representing the
present password. Call the factory with this encrypted value to
determine the actual password.
2.6.6 Menu: Step-By-Step Procedure
The following tables provide a complete explanation of the
software menus displayed by the Radar transmitter. Use these
tables as a step-by-step guide to configure the transmitter.
The first column presents the menus shown on the trans-
mitter display. The displays are in the order they would
appear if the arrow keys were used to scroll through the
menu. The numbers are not shown
on the display. They are provided as a
reference only.
The second column provides the
actions to take when configuring the
transmitter. Additional information or
an explanation of an action is given in
the third column.
Figure 27 provides reference to the
configuration procedure.
Use of the included PACT
ware

PC
program is highly recommended and
invaluable for troubleshooting and
advanced calibration. A HART RS232
or USB modem (purchased separately)
is required. See MAGNETROL
