Access Control and Passwords
The EA800 console is normally locked to prevent unauthorized use. The currently active function of the F1 soft key
( UNLOCK or LOCK) is displayed above the key. The locked and unlocked states are described below.
Note: The console locks automatically after 30 minutes of inactivity if the user does not press the LOCK soft key
(F1).
■ Locked: This is the default state and limits access to the EA800 to viewing only.
UNLOCK is displayed above the F1 soft key indicates that the console is currently
locked. Pressing the F1 soft key prompts the user to enter a password to unlock
the console, permitting full access to all screens and functions. The HOME key,
MENU key, and the
MAIN MENU options shown on the screen at right are
available to the user when the console is locked.
■ Unlocked: When the console is unlocked, LOCK displayed above the F1 soft key, and all information,
programming, and maintenance screens may be viewed and programming changes may be made. Pressing
the F1 soft key locks the EA800 console and protects it from unauthorized or unintended programming
changes, log downloads, and firmware uploads.
The console allows the use of two passwords for unlocking:
■ The factory default password is 0800. This password cannot be changed or deleted.
■ A second, optional password may be set by the user. To create a second user password, see “Changing the
Password” on page 48.
