Security

ION Security consists of ION software security and ION meter security. ION
software security requires you to log on to its components (such as Vista™,
Designer™ and Device Upgrader) with a user name and password. The ION
software user account restricts the use of ION software to view or setup
configuration changes on the meter.

ION meter security requests a password when you attempt to save a change on to
the meter either through the front panel of the meter or using software (ION or
third party software).

Some ION meters support Advanced security where you can configure the meter
to recognize multiple users each with different levels of access to the meter
components and functionality.
