4.10.9 Expert Access Flag
This CONFIG mode item is used to toggle the state of the Expert Access Flag. When the Expert
Access Flag is set (ON), the user has access to all controller modes and all CONFIG mode items.
When the Expert Access Flag is reset (OFF), the user is locked out of several modes and most
CONFIG mode items. This purpose of this feature is to keep an operator away from the modes and
CONFIG mode items which can allow an operator to change the contents of the controller's non-volatile
memory.
When the Expert Access screen is displayed, the present state of the Expert Access Flag is displayed in
the data entry field. A display value of 1 indicates that the Expert Access Flag is set, and a value of 0
indicates that the flag is reset. To toggle the state of the flag, either from set (1) to reset (0) or reset (0)
to set (1), the user must key in a 5 digit code at the prompt followed by the ENTER key. This code is
found in a removable appendix (Appendix A) at the end of this manual. If the information is lost, call the
factory for assistance.

4.10.10 Reset System Data
This CONFIG mode data item is used to reset the controllers non-volatile memory. When this occurs,

initialized to a default value. This operation is usually performed at the factory. Access to this item is
allowed only when the Expert Access Flag is set. To reset the system memory, the user must key in
the same 5 digit code, followed by the ENTER key.
