Password
A password for the MessageView terminal is optional. It protects the
MessageView terminal from an unauthorized person making changes
to the system configuration using the Front Panel Editor. The
terminal operator does not need a password to run the application.
Note: MessageView 421D terminals do not support the password
option.
Select the check box to enable the password option. Then highlight
the text in the box and type a 4-digit number as the password.
A password applies as long as the current application resides in the
MessageView terminal. Other applications that run at different times
in the same terminal may have the same or a different password, or
none.
A terminal operator who knows the password can use the Front
Panel Editor to disable and enable the password feature, provided it
is enabled and defined in the application. If it is not defined, the
operator cannot enable it.
The Time/Date tab in the Terminal Setup dialog specifies how the
time and date are displayed on the MessageView terminal. For
example:
