9.0 Password Protecting the Programming Functions
In some situations it may be useful to password protect certain functions of the scale so that they can only be used
by authorized personnel. Each of the major modes of the scale other than the operation mode can be set to require
a password of up to six numeric digits. The ability to set, change or delete passwords in the password mode itself
should also be password protected. Another option for protecting certain functions is to require use of the span
switch (SPEC 636 internal count protected by span switch and SPEC 637 calibration default spec SPEC 142
mode protected by span switch). See
Section 3.1 for instructions on how to set customer specifications.
9.1 How to Program a Password
1. At the stand-by screen, press the MODE key until the password mode appears on the display. The X
annunciator will blink. The scale will now allow you to program a password for the different modes in
order.
2. Enter a password for the report (X) mode of up to 6 numeric digits (alphabetic and ASCII characters are
not available in this function) and press the
* REPRINT key to store it. If you do not wish to program a
password for this mode, simply press the * REPRINT key. The display will move to the next mode, the
programming (S) mode shown by the blinking
S annunciator.
3. If desired, enter a password for the programming (S) mode of up to 6 numeric digits and press the *
REPRINT
key to store it or just press * REPRINT to set no password. The display will move to the next
mode, the service (Z) mode shown by the blinking Z annunciator.
4. If desired, enter a password for the service (Z) mode and press the * REPRINT key to store it or just press
the * REPRINT key to set no password. The display will move to the password (P) mode shown by the
having all the mode annunciators blink.
5. If desired, enter a password for the password (P) mode or just press * REPRINT key to set no password.
This function allows you to require a password in order to be able to access the password-setting mode.
Press the * REPRINT key to store it. At this point the scale will return to the operation mode.
6. Press the MODE key five times to return to the Stand-by screen.
9.2 How to Use a Password
1. From the stand-by screen, press the MODE key until you see displayed the mode you want to use. If a
password has been set for that mode, the scale display will request the user to enter it.
2. Enter the password for the mode you want to enter and press the * REPRINT key.
3. If an incorrect password is entered, the error message NO GO will appear on the display for a few
seconds. Then the display will return to the password-entering mode.
4. Once a correct password is entered, the display will show the first option under that mode.
9.3 How to Change or Delete a Password
1. At the stand-by screen, press the MODE key until the password mode appears on the display.
2. If a password is required to enter the password (P) mode, the display will prompt the user for it. Enter the
password followed by the
* REPRINT key. The password (P) mode will take you through all the other
modes for which passwords can be set or changed. To go past any password programming screen without
changing the existing setting, press the * REPRINT key.
3. You now have the following options:
•If there is an existing password and you want to keep it the same, you must re-enter it and then press the
* REPRINT key.
•If there is an existing password, you can change it simply by entering a new password of up to 6
numeric digits and then pressing the
* REPRINT key.
•If there is an existing password, you can delete it and leave this mode without a password by pressing
the * REPRINT key without entering anything.
•If there is no existing password for this mode, you can set one by entering up to 6 numeric digits and
then press the
* REPRINT key.
•If there is no existing password for this mode, you can leave it without one by pressing the * REPRINT
