Function 64 Configure Passwords

Use function 64 to enter password data. The DT200 provides two security passwords

that can be activated and entered to protect configuration data. Password 1 is used to

protect I/O port configuration, setpoint, and event monitor data. Password 2 is used to

protect calibration and scale configuration data. Security level 3 provides extra

protection for password level 2 data. Security level 3 requires the entry of password 2

and the Function Lock inside the DT200 to be in the unlocked position. Password 3 will

inhibit viewing, changing, and uploading of Scale Basic functions to a PC when

password is active but will allow downloading a new Scale Basic program from the PC to

the indicator. All passwords will be disabled once the new program has been downloaded

into the indicator and should be reactivated.
The Operation Parameter Reference Table lists the configuration parameters and the

password/security level required to access them. The DT200 prompts “PASS 1” when a

parameter is selected that requires password level 1. If the entered password is incorrect,

the DT200 displays “Error”. Press the ENTER key to try again. Press the CLEAR to

exit from password entry.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Write down the passwords and put them in a safe place. If you

loose and forget a password, there is no way to access the protected functions.
1. Hold the CLEAR key down and press the ENTER key to enter the configure mode.

2. Enter CFG 64. The DT200 prompts “P1 xxxx” where xxxx is the current password

number. Enter a new password number or press the ENTER key to use the displayed

number. Enter a 0 (zero) for the password number to disable the password.

3. The DT200 prompts “P2 xxxx”. Enter password 2 data.

4. The DT200 prompts “P3 xxxx”. Enter password 3 data.

Function 65 Configure Print Formats

Use function 65 to modify print formats to meet your print requirements. The print

formats are grouped into PAGES that are used for generating print data onto a form.

Each page is organized into rows and columns as follows:

Line No. Column No. Item No.

Line No. = Line number on the page to print the item on.

Column No. = Column position where item print begins.

Item No. = Item to print.

Print format design requires you to become familiar with the PAGE LIST and the PRINT

ITEM LIST. The PAGE LIST describes how each PAGE is used. The PRINT ITEM

LIST describes what ITEMS can be included in each page. Use the print format

worksheets to design new print formats. The PRINT FORMAT DESIGN EXAMPLE

illustrates how a print format is designed. A list of the default print formats is found in
