Section 3.9.3 Code (Password) System Operation
If any of the access modes to Program Mode that use a code is chosen in the User Configuration Mode,
code access to the system to perform setting(s) or action(s) is a log on operation that requires a user to
enter his name (or classification) and a code associated with the user name. The system will also ask for
a name and code whenever softkeys that allow access to settings or actions restricted to Program Mode,
such as reset or bypass, are pressed. Once the user has logged on with his user code through any
screen, access to other settings and actions permitted by his code in other screens is available until
manual or automatic log out.
The following example of code access to Program Mode shows the steps necessary to access settings by
code for new entry or change through the Die Protection screen if the User Configuration is set to allow
code access. It should be noted that log on may also be required to reset or bypass the die protection
function in the example shown when a reset or bypass softkey is pressed. Although screens for
programmable limit switch and other functions are somewhat different, a common feature will be that
the code request sequence to settings will always be by means of the upper right softkey, whereas the
code request sequence for actions is initiated by the softkey that performs the action. Further, a user
with proper access code can always log on by pressing the SUPPLY ACCESS CODE softkey that
appears at the top of the Brake Monitor and Diagnostic screen in Run Mode. The popup Select User
Name table and user name Code Entry box that are shown later in this example will also appear on all
other screens where access to settings or actions by code (password) is used.
