Security and Passcode Programming
You can use multi-level passcodes to control access to the 8600 via the front panel
and via PC Remote. You can configure a given passcode to allow one of the follow-
ing levels of access:
1. All Screens (i.e., administrator level)
2. All Screens except Security
3. All screens except Modify and Security
4. Presets, Modify, Save, Memory, and Automation
5. Presets and Automation
6. Presets
Only passcodes with
A
LL
S
CREENS
access let you do software updates and set
passcode permissions.
Each Passcode is unique; the software will not let you create duplicate Passcodes.
Further, to prevent accidental lockout, the software requires you to have at least
one passcode with
A
LL
S
CREENS
(administrator) privileges.
Your Optimod secures User Presets by encrypting them (using the Advanced Encryp-
tion Standard algorithm with the session passcode as its key) when PC Remote
fetches them. Hence, a packet sniffer cannot intercept User Presets in plaintext form.
PC Remote then writes the fetched User Presets in encrypted form on your hard
drive, where they remain for the duration
of your PC Remote session.
If PC Remote exits normally, it will
erase these temporary User Preset
files from your computer’s hard
disk. If it does not exit normally,
these files will remain in encrypt-
ed form. However, the next time
that PC Remote starts up, it will
automatically clean up any or-
phaned files.

The Security screen lets you set front-panel lockout time, create new passcodes,
review and/or assign authorization levels for existing passcodes, and delete
passcodes.
