7.3 Password Settings
This AIS transponder has two levels of password-
protected security. The “User Password”
gives access to user- level privileges and the ”Service Password” gives access to administrative
privileges. The default password from the factory is mentioned on your AIS display at the
protection foil.
Once you have entered the system, please change the default password to your own
passwords, for both levels of access. Use different passwords for the different security levels.
Your passwords must meet the following criteria:
Minimum of six (6) characters , maximum of eight (8) characters
Letters must be in UPPER CASE
Acceptable characters are the A-Z alphabet and 0- 9 digits
Password may contain both letters and numbers
After you have changed the password, write it down below.
WARNING: It is very important that the Service password not be lost. Keeping the
password in a second location may be wise. Memorizing the password is best. If you lose this
password, you cannot make any further configuration changes: Access to the AIS is blocked.
Another master key is not available and the unit would have to be returned to the ACR Service
centre. This service is not free of charge.
