Authorization

There are authorization levels for each parameter, which permit or prohibit read
and write access to the parameter. The user interface starts with the lowest autho-
rization level, which usually only permits read access to parameters.

More rights can be obtained by entering the appropriate password.

The password can be changed by the user:

• /System/Authorization For Standard Protection (2.06.02) parameter

As delivered, the password on the device is "2222"

The current authorization level is indicated by the color of the password field.

Write protection - red entry field

At this authorization level, the user typically only has read access to standard
parameters.

Standard protection - green entry field

At this authorization level, the user typically also has read access to advanced
parameters and write access to standard parameters.

Online mode

Authorization is performed directly on the device, i.e. the device assigns an
appropriate authorization level.

Offline mode

You can authorize yourself for a higher authorization level with a password, when
this is contained in the loaded offline authorization parameters.

Note

It is not possible to authorize yourself in offline mode with a password that is avail-
able on the device, but is not contained in the offline authorization parameters.
