Setting Up Security for the Controller
In the BaseStation 1000 you can set up the following levels of security access:
• Admin – Grants access to all controller functions
• Programmer – Grants access to all controller functions except the Security function
• Operator – Grants access to the Run menu, the Manual Run menu, and the Test menu
After you enable the security and set up the PINs, restart the controller. Users will be prompted to
enter their PIN when they press one of the menu buttons on the controller. If the user does not
have access to the menu, he/she will see the message “Invalid PIN.”
IMPORTANT NOTE! When a user accesses the controller with a PIN, the controller will maintain
that level of access for 1 hour. When that time is up, anyone who tries to use the controller will be
prompted to enter a PIN.

Setup menu displays.
