Setting X and Manager Passcodes
Setting X and Manager Passcodes
Manager passcodes are available for added security:
• to go to the PRG and Z modes
• to go to the X mode.
After you program a passcode, you must use it every time you go to the
program mode or to go to X or Z report modes, depending on which you
set the passcode for.
When you enter a passcode, it appears as asterisks **** on the displays for
extra security.
