Setting the Passcode
Caution: Any accidental mis-setting of the passcode menus may permanently deny access to the video
switcher’s programming menus. Do not make any changes to these settings unless it is definitely
determined that passcoding is required. Carefully record any entered passcodes. This is
especially true of the master passcode. Without the master passcode, programming of the
switcher may be permanently denied.
The video switcher provides a two-level passcode system that controls access to the programming menus.
Access to normal operating functions is not affected by the passcode system. The master passcode is
intended for use by the overall system supervisor, while the secondary passcode can be customized to
provide access to specified functions.
In addition to the two levels of access provided by the master and secondary passcodes, the passcode system
also has two modes of operation. The modes are selected in line B of the Change Passcode submenu. In one
mode, when an operator presses SHIFT, MENU to display the Main Menu, the system requires a passcode
before any menu is displayed, regardless of if there is a master or secondary passcode. In the second mode,
pressing SHIFT, MENU allows the menu to be displayed but does not allow any modifications to be made
while in secondary passcode.
The master passcode permits access to all menu items, including line A and I of the Main Menu. The
secondary passcode can be customized for access to different programming functions, but it never provides
access to Change Passcode functions. The remaining eight lines of the Main Menu may or may not be
accessed with the secondary passcode, depending on how each of the lines is programmed in the Secondary
Access Menu. If access to one of these lines has been denied, for example Camera Setup, selecting the line
will display the menu but no changes may be made to it.
To display the Passcode Menu, select Change Passcode from the Main Menu.

F. About
The six zeroes in line C, Master, indicate that the system is not passcoded at this time.
Passcode to Menu: Bring the arrow to line B, Passcode To Menu? If this is set to N (no), the menus may be
displayed without a passcode but no changes may be made to them while in secondary passcode. The Main
Menu is displayed with a block (
!
) in front of line I while in secondary pascode. If line B is set to Y (yes),
pressing the SHIFT, MENU keys displays the passcode prompt:
PASSCODE: ------
↑
If the master passcode is entered, the Main Menu is displayed normally and all programming is enabled. If the
secondary passcode is entered, the Main Menu is displayed with a block (
!
) in front of line I, and access to
programming is limited as described below under Secondary Access.
