Chapter 7
Security
• • • • • •
Chapter 7 covers the security menu, which allows the user to lock out different levels of the menu hierarchy.
The user configurable security settings only limit access through the Optional Front Panel to ensure the
consistency of the instrument setup and weighing process. Parameter configuration through the network is
unaffected by these security settings.
Note: Security settings are universal and are applied to all channels on the system. For example, if
Calibration Security is selected, then a password is required to calibrate ANY Weight Processor
Module on the System.

The current status and password for each level of security can be read and changed through the web browser
if using an Ethernet connection, or through the serial interface.
To access or modify the security parameters through the Optional Front Panel display, a password always
needs to be entered before a lock can be enabled or disabled or the password modified. Note, that as the
password can be read over the network, any security password can always be over written if the local
operator enters an incorrect password.
