Configuring access protection for the CPU
Introduction
The S7-1500R/H redundant system has four different access levels to limit access to specific
functions.
By setting up access levels and passwords, you limit the functions and memory areas that
are accessible without a password. The individual access levels and corresponding
passwords are specified in the object properties of the CPUs.
Rules for passwords
Ensure that passwords are sufficiently secure. Passwords must not follow a machine-
recognizable pattern.
Apply the following rules:
●
Assign a password that is at least 8 characters long.
●
Use different cases and characters: uppercase/lowercase, numbers and special
characters.
