BendixKing SKYMAP IIIC - Manual (Page 108)

SETUP SCREENS
Screen 27: PIN Change Screen
When you access this Screen the cursor will be sitting over the first question mark. This
represents the first digit of the PIN. Your new PIN can be entered from here by pressing
Keys 2,3,4 or 5 (now labelled 1,2,3, and 4 in the illustration above). The numbers you
enter will replace the question marks as they are entered and the cursor will step to the
right.
When the fourth digit has been entered, the new PIN will automatically be transferred to
the unit's Non Volatile Memory (NVM) and Screen 26 will be displayed, showing the newly
entered PIN. If you wish, you may press Key 1 at any time and this will take you straight to
Screen 26 without making any change to the original PIN.
Auto Power-On Lock
Pressing Key 3, AUTO LOCK, on Screen 26, Pin Change & Power On Lock Enable
Screen, allows you to switch the Auto Power-On Lock security feature ON or OFF. If you
ENABLE the Power-On Lock, the unit will require your PIN to be entered every time you or
anyone else switches it on. Although, as mentioned above, so long as the Power-On Lock
has not been activated, you can key in as many PIN attempts as you wish, once it has
been ENABLED however the situation changes entirely.
APPE
NDICES
If an incorrect PIN is then entered three consecutive times at the switch-on stage, the unit
will lock out and display Screen 55 (see APPENDIX B ). If this happens to you, in order to
re-activate the unit, you will have to telephone Honeywell or your Bendix/King dealer,
armed with the Serial Number of your unit and the Lock-Out Number, which you can read
from the top of Screen 55. The operator at your dealer or at Honeywell will verify these
details and check them against the Honeywell database and register of stolen units.
Once the operator is satisfied that the unit has not been stolen and that you are the
officially recognised owner, you will be given an Unlock Code Number. This Unlock
Number is a 10-digit number. In order to unlock your unit you must now enter this number
correctly into your unit, still using Screen 55. The digits will replace the question marks as
each one is keyed in. The Unlock Number is regarded by the unit as having been entered
as soon as the last digit has been keyed in. Every time an incorrect Unlock Number is
entered, the unit will generate a new LOCK OUT number. This makes it impossible for a
would-be thief to stumble upon the Unlock Number by trial and error. The odds against a
thief guessing the correct Unlock Code Number are 10 million to 1.
