Password Menu
The Browse Blocks screen will display all data, regardless of the Password system
status. However, the Browse Blocks menu will not allow the user to modify blockware
parameters unless the active Password Level is acceptable.
As shipped from the factory, the PCC-IV password system is disabled; therefore, the
user can modify any item in the PCC-IV.
Once a Password Level is activated, it will automatically deactivate after a timeout
period of 6 hours.
