3.4  Software 
The UN1020 device supports several operating modes and software features, such as 
machine voltage regulator (Auto), field regulator (Manual), measurements monitoring 
and others which are described in detail in this section.  
There are three different SW function packages defined as BASIC and FULL packages 
(and PSS as option only). The table below shows the configurations. 
A set of basic software features is enabled by default in each UN1020 product and is 
referred to as basic software package. There are optional software features which 
extend the UN1020 capabilities and which can be enabled by password.

Once a password code has been acquired from ABB, an optional software feature can 
be enabled using the CMT1000 software. A pre-configured device with selected 
optional features can also be ordered by means of the product rubric number, and in 
this case there is no need for software activation by password. More information 
regarding the activation procedure can be found in Chapter 6.4.5 Menu Structure of 
CMT1000. 
The following sections explain the complete UN1020 software including optional 
features. It is clearly mentioned at the beginning of the description if a software feature 
is optional or not. The Panel and CMT1000 software are explained in Chapter 6 - 
Operation.  
After the configuration of the device, the parameters should be stored in the non-
volatile EEPROM memory; otherwise the changes are lost after restarting the device. 
The command Save to the EEPROM is used to store parameters in the non-volatile 
memory and is explained in Chapter 6 - Operation.
