3-6. SECURITY.
The VR240 has a security feature that is intended to prevent operation and, if desired, media
removal, by unauthorized personnel. In several operational menus, you have the opportunity to
Lock
the unit by entering an 8-digit password. Once you have done this, the front panel
controls will be unresponsive until the password is re-entered.
It also is possible to LOCK the unit in various states. From the CONFIG/SYTEM/SECURITY
menu, you can LOCK the VR240 in an inoperative state to prevent its being used at all.
CONFIG/SYSTEM/SECURITY is also the menu that allows you to change the password.
3-6.1 Select Security Levels.
There are two security levels with access options available at each.
a. After pressing the
Config, System
, then
Security
soft keys press the
Security Level
soft key.
b. Use the
Change
soft key to scroll through the two options. When finished, press the
Done
soft key. Whatever is showing on the display when you press
Done
will be the
current setting.
High Security
Whether or not the VR240 is in a “locked” state, this level of security
denies access to the Config menu. This will prevent accidental or unauthorized changes
that would affect operation of the VR240. High security also password protects the
TIME ADJUST and MEDIA USAGE menus during record.
Low Security
When the VR240 is “locked” and in “Low Security” mode, you must use a
password to unlock the unit. Once the unit is unlocked, access to all menus is available.
