Set Time

The current time may be entered in this field using the 24 -hour HH : MM :SS
format. For example, 3:45 a.m. is entered as

0345

and 3:45 PM is entered as

1545

.

Set Date

The current date may be entered in this field using the MM :DD :YY format. For
example, July 4, 1993 is entered as

070493

.

The time and date can be set at the far end, but not displayed.

New Password

Allows entry of a password of up to 10 characters. An empty string (carriage
return only) may be entered to disable the password feature. After Enter is pressed,
the new password is activated and is no longer visible. Therefore, type carefully
when entering a new password and verify before pressing Enter. When the terminal
interface is exited and later reactivated, this password must be entered exactly to
gain access. If the wrong password is entered, the following message appears:

Incorrect Password; Please Enter Again.

Do not exit the terminal interface program until the password procedure is fully understood.
If a password has been specified, it must be typed exactly to reenter the program.

If the user programs a password and later forgets it, the password may be cleared
through the front panel maintenance reset (see Maintenance Reset on page 16).
The reset operation sets all parameters to the factory default settings and zeros all
performance registers. If the reset operation is not a satisfactory option, then call
TXPORT Customer Support for a one-time-use back door password (see Support
from TXPORT on page 65
).

Maintenance Reset

Clear all user-selectable parameters, performance registers, passwords, and alarms.
All alarm threshold parameters is reset to default values. The unit reloads start-up
configuration settings from the default parameters stored in ROM. Pressing Enter
on this field brings up a warning prompt asking whether or not to perform the reset
function.
