Security Settings
The Security button on the Protected Setup page has three settings: Standard Security, Secure, and
DoD. Each setting has different features for touch panel security:
Toggling between these three immediately and automatically resets the existing password to the default
password for that setting. With an unsecured panel using the Standard Security setting, the default
password is 1988. With panels using either the Secure or the DoD settings, the default password is
Amx1234! (paying attention to the case of the letters). Entering the existing password will not work and
the default will need to be entered at this point will allow access to the Protected Settings page and allow
resetting of the password to a new one.
