Activate Password
Passwords can be set in the System menu in both Run or Stop operating modes. If,
however, a password is already activated, you will not be able to access most of the
items from the System menu unless you deactivate the password.
1. Press Esc and OK to call up the System menu.
2. Select the menu item SECURITY.
3. Press the OK button and select Activate PWD.
4. Press the OK button again to access the password entry area.
5. Set the password (from 00000001 to 99999999) using the cursor buttons:
– left and right arrows move to the 8-digit entry field
– left and right arrows select digit in password
– up and down arrows set a value between 0 and 9.
6. Save the new password by pressing OK.
7. Press OK or Esc to exit the password display.
– The password is now valid but not yet activated.
Deactivate Password
To be able to unlock the LCD and gain access to most system functions, you need
to use the Deactivate Password option.
Deactivating the password grants you access to such functions as Mode Switch,
Smart Relay, Security, Advanced Settings such as Clock Setup, Input Filter, AI
Calibration, PwrUp Behavior, and Memory Module.
1. Press Esc and OK to call up the System menu.
2. Select the menu item SECURITY.
IMPORTANT Using the Deactivate Password option only deactivates the password for
the current session. When the controller is power cycled, the LCD
password that has been previously set is still enforced. You will have to
deactivate the password again to access most system functions.
