Operating instructions
6.4.3.2 Changing the password
The password is set in the configuration mode. If a password has already been set,
the code is displayed as astersiks.
If the user wants to change a password, the active password lock must first be re
-
voked by entering the current password.
After the correct input, the new password can be set. If the numerical entry has
been completed with the PUSH-function, a note is displayed indicating that the
password lock is activated. The purpose of this note is to once more indicate the
significance of this function to the operator. If the function is canceled, the previous
state is maintained.
If the operator continues the dialog [>>>], the password must be repeated for acti-
vation.
If the password has been repeated correctly, the station is protected by the code. If
the code has been entered incorrectly, a note is displayed and the previous state is
maintained.
The symbol
a
signalizes that the station is protected.
6.4.3.3 Input of values without deactivating the password
If values are to be changed, e.g. set value, without a deactivation of the password, a
request to enter the password is issued when the value is tried to be changed. If the
correct password is entered, the operator has approx. 30 sec. of time to perform his
changes. If he performs settings during this time limit, the time limit will be extended
by another 30 sec. each time. This way, further settings can be performed. If no in-
put is carried out for 30 sec., the password lock will be re-activated.
