Section 3.1: Passwords and Group Access Level
3.1.1 Passwords
The SV100 allows you to program up to two passwords. The purpose of a password is to
prevent people from inadvertently changing important parameters found in the Service
and Advanced Levels. In order to change parameters in the Service or Advanced
Levels, you must first enter a password designated to the respective level. The User
Level does not require a password to change parameters.
When you first receive your drive, the programming permission level is initially setup for
the
Advanced Level. This means you can program parameters in all levels. The initial
password for all levels is (0). To help explain how passwords affect programming permission
levels, see Figure 3.1.1.
3.1.2 Entering a Password
When you first receive the SV100 drive, the initial password for all levels is (0). To help
explain how specific passwords affect each permission level of programming, follow Figure
3.1.1. It is assumed that the initial password of (0) has been changed to a (1) for
Service
Level and a (2) for Advanced Level. If a password change is desired, see Changing a
Password, in Section 3.1.3 of this manual.
3.1.3 Changing a Password
If a password change is desired in either the Service Level or the Advanced Level,
reference Figure 3.1.2.
Caution: Once you change your password, make sure it is written down where it can be
referenced at a later time if necessary.
