user with administrator level privileges. When the front panel PIN feature is enabled, the factory
default for the PIN is 0000. Each position of the password is configurable between 0-9. A sample
screen like that following is required for PIN access.
The up, down, left and right arrows are used to enter the appropriate password. Upon entering a
correct PIN the following momentary screen shows up and then disappears leaving the user at the
menu location prior to entering the PIN.
A user must enter the PIN for items that generally are not deemed as functions of a typical
maintenance routine. It is assumed that the majority of the configured thresholds and system
operational features will not be changed through a maintenance routine. Thus, entering the correct
PIN will be required in order for these specific types of parameters or features to be modified in
the field. These same rules are implemented when accessing through the Craft port. In addition to
Configuration items, there are some Control/Operations that also require the PIN. These are
shown below.
