Provides a way to edit passwords and, also, to add new users and pass-
words. All menu items are protected by passwords of varying security lev-
els. By assigning different passwords to different security levels, the
ATLAS 550 system administrator can control which users can change vari-
ous menu items.
You can assign multiple passwords at the same access level. This way, dif-
ferent users with the same access privileges can have different passwords.
Table 6-1 on page 6-2 describes each of the six password security levels.
Instructions for Adding/Deleting Passwords
