Note
Secure passwords
● The password must be between 8 and 10 characters long.
● STARTER does not make any checks for illegal characters or passwords which have
already been used. As the user, you are responsible for the required password security.
– Use a sufficiently long password.
– Special characters must be used.
– Avoid passwords that you have already used elsewhere.
● If the Windows language settings are changed, errors can occur when subsequently
checking the password. If you use language-specific special characters, you must ensure
that the same language setting is active on the computer for subsequent entry of the
password.
To enable a user and activate a password, proceed as follows:
1. Click the checkbox of the user you want to enable (e.g. enable "Enable user "SINAMICS"
(restricted rights)" user, etc.)
