Totalizer: 

From the Settings screen, press the Totalizer button to view and reset the

reset at any time.

Security: 

From the Settings screen, press the Security button to access the security 
settings and password protected length counter.  This section is useful if 
the owner of the machine suspects a crew is running more material than 
expected.  For this feature to be effective, the manual start buttons must be 
disabled in the contactor box, See drawing: EZC-G (gutter machines) or 
EZC-P (SSR machines). 
If the password is set to “0”, no password will be required to access the 
security screen.  If the password is set to anything except “0”, a password 
will need to be entered to access the security screen.

The total counter will track the length of coil that goes through the 
machine as long as the encoder is reading the material.  If the encoder has 
been disconnect or disabled, the controller will track the amount of time 
when the encoder is not reading material but the machine is being jogged 
forward from the controller (not the manual push buttons).  Press the 
Change PW button to change the password.
