Access Codes

Choose Access Codes to assign up to eight security code settings. Once
security codes are set, an operator will have to sign on using the
appropriate code, in order to view screens that have assigned security.
Screen security is assigned using PanelBuilder software.

Important If a screen is triggered by the PLC Controlled Screen option, or
if it is the Power-up screen, that screen will be displayed and no access
code will be requested.

The Operator Number display shows which operator’s code you are
setting. Press Next Operator to step through the eight available operator
access codes. The following illustration shows the Security Access Codes
screen on a touch screen terminal.

To set an operator’s code on a touch screen terminal, enter a numeric
sequence in the keypad and press ENT (Enter). On keypad terminals, press
the Change Access Code button to enable the Access Code keypad
window, and use the function keypad to enter the access code.

You can also globally enable or disable all security by pressing Security

Once security codes are set, and security is enabled, operators can access a
restricted PanelView 1200 screen only by entering the appropriate access
code. If the code is invalid, the requested screen will not be displayed and
the operator will be informed which operator(s) have access to that screen.
