Page 29 of 60 5-2-4 Finishing Setup: Setting Up Passwords You can set up passwords for two levels of security: for operators and for setup personnel. The controller comes from the factory with neither password set. This allows every user access to all functions.
Page 30 of 60 Note: If you want to protect the operator’s functions with a password, you must also define a setup password. If you leave the setup password undefined, then all users will have access to all functions.
