Enter Password
A common password is provided for all controllers. This common password is "911". The
password is required when changing a setting (such as Door Time, Fire Return Landing,
etc.) or a feature (such as Fire Service Code, Front and Rear Door selections, etc.).
The password can be entered from the Setup Menu, as described below. Each time the
Setup Menu is entered, the password access is cleared, so the password must be entered
again. If the password is required for a m
enu item, a “Password
Entry” screen will be
displayed. Just press "911" then Ent to access the menu item.
From the “Enter Password” menu item, press
Ent
to show the “Password Entry” screen.
Enter the password, “911”, then
press Ent.
A message will briefly be displayed indicating whether the password was correct or not.
The display will then move back to the Setup Menu.
If the password has been successfully entered, and it is desired to restore password
protection, so that the password must be re-entered to gain access to the protected menu
items, select the "Enter Password" menu item and enter an incorrect password. Password
protection is also restored whenever the controller goes from the Run Mode to the Setup
Mode.
The password can be entered by pressing the 7 key when the display is activated from
the blank screen (after a power cycle), or when the "VA.CONTROLS" banner is displayed
(after pressings Esc from the Run Mode menus). This allows the password to be entered
without stopping the controller.
The password can be given to all authorized personnel, that is those who would need to
change settings or features on the controller.
WARNING: It is recommended that the password NOT be written on
the prints, or controller itself, as this would allow anyone to access
settings and features that could cause damage to personnel or
equipment.
WARNING: Use great care in changing settings and features, as this
may cause unexpected operation. Make sure you understand the
consequences of any changes before making them.

Test I/O Boards
This selection allows specific outputs to be turned on as desired, so that they can be
tested for proper operation.
This selection is password protected. The password must be entered each time this
menu item is selected, even if the password has been correctly entered before. The generic
password "911" may be used. This prevents unauthorized personnel from activating this
feature, and also prevents accidentally entering this feature.
After pressing Ent
to select this item, enter the password “911” and then press
Ent.
The LCD screen will display "'Ent' = START TEST, OTHER KEY = QUIT". Press the Ent
key to start the test feature, or press any other key to return to the setup menu.
