Individual user passwords are assigned on the control to protect different
features of the control from an unauthorized operator. The password
names and functions assigned to passwords are all determined on the
control. Refer to your mill or lathe programming and operation manuals
for more information.
These AMP parameters determine the system’s master password. This
master password allows access to all control features, including patch
AMP and other password levels. The master password should not be given
the everyday-user since significant damage to the control may be done by
inexperienced operators.
Function
Use these AMP parameters to determine the system’s master password that
allows access to all of the control’s features, including patch AMP and
other password levels.
Enter the ASCII character value for each digit of the 6-digit master
password. The default value of the master password is “AB-D4.” Note
that the sixth character for the default password is ASCII character 32.
Character 32 is the ASCII space character; therefore, there’s no need to
enter a sixth character for the default password.
