notifications.

6.1.1 Password Protection
The MCX-32 controller incorporates password protection to keep un-authorized personnel from inadvertently
changing the controller’s configuration. If not already logged in, pressing the ‘MENU’ button will take the
user to the USER LOGIN screen and be prompted to enter a valid password. Selecting the asterisks field will
display an on screen numeric keypad that the user should use to enter the password. The default password is
‘1234’ and once logged in, can be changed in the CHANGE PASSWORD menu from the SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION screen. Any numeric value up to ten digits is considered a valid password. The user will
remain logged in for 1 minute after the last executed action at which time, the unit will automatically log off,
thus requiring the user to log in again for any further changes. The user can also log off manually by selecting
the ‘LOG OFF’ button when available.
6.2 Channel Details Screen
Detailed information for any sensor can be found on the Channel Details screen. This screen can be viewed by
selecting a channel from the Main Display screen. After selecting the appropriate channel, the Channel Details
screen will be displayed.
