ICIM Password
The ICIM allows you to send configuration commands, change alarm thresholds,
and restore factory default settings in Prisma II modules. To prevent unauthorized
changes to these parameters, you have the option of using a password protection
system. Password authorization only applies to configurable parameters. Status and
alarm information is always available on the ICIM, regardless of password
implementation.
Note: The following instructions pertain to the use of the ICIM2 front-panel interface
(LCD and keyboard). Remote password and other administrative functions are also
supported using CLI Commands or the ICIM Web Interface. For details, see the
Prisma II Platform Remote User Interface Guide, System Release 2.03, part number
4025477.
Password Protection System
The ICIM menu options available in the password protection system are shown here.
ICIM Menu
Option
Description
User Psw A user-settable password.
Created, entered, and changed by the system operator(s)
Must be exactly eight digits, using only the 0-9 number keys
Change Psw Changes an existing user password.
Disable Psw Disables the user password function.
SA Psw A service password used by factory personnel only.
Important: If you only want to monitor status and alarm data, skip the password
function when it appears on the ICIM menu. You can access all module status and
alarm information without a password.
However, once a user password is entered, you are required to enter it every time
you want to set configurable parameters to any module controlled by that ICIM.
Refer to Expired Password or Inactive Password Messages (on page 47) and To
Enter the User Password (on page 47).
