8.4. PASSWORD SECURITY FOR SERIAL REMOTE

COMMUNICATIONS

In order to provide security for remote access of the 9110T, a LOGON feature can be enabled to require
a password before the instrument will accept commands. This is done by turning on the SECURITY
MODE
(refer to Section 5.5). Once the SECURITY MODE is enabled, the following items apply.

 A password is required before the port will respond or pass on commands.

 If the port is inactive for one hour, it will automatically logoff, which can also be achieved with the

LOGOFF command.

 Three unsuccessful attempts to log on with an incorrect password will cause subsequent logins to

be disabled for 1 hour, even if the correct password is used.

 If not logged on, the only active command is the '?' request for the help screen.

 The following messages will be returned at logon:

 LOGON SUCCESSFUL - Correct password given

 LOGON FAILED - Password not given or incorrect

 LOGOFF SUCCESSFUL - Connection terminated successfully

To log on to the 9110T analyzer with SECURITY MODE feature enabled, type:

LOGON 940331

940331 is the default password. To change the default password, use the variable RS-232_PASS issued
as follows:

V RS-232_PASS=NNNNNN

Where N is any numeral between 0 and 9.
