11.6.2.1 Password Groups (Valid for ELGAS version 2, MODBUS, and CTR)
The passwords are divided into 5 groups. Users of the "Administrators" group have the highest
rights, the users of the "User 3" group have the lowest rights. Higher-level users have lower-level
users rights, plus some others. Up to 10 passwords can be used in each group (i.e., a total of 50
passwords are available). The passwords are identified by a three-digit numeric designation. The
length of each password is limited to a maximum of 6 characters. Users in all the groups can
change their own passwords. The group administrator (the user with the lowest ID in each group)
can change the passwords of other users in that group. The administrator of the "Administrators"
(ID = 801) group can change the passwords of the administrators of the other groups. According
to the communication protocol used, the following characters can be used in a password:
letters a-z, A-Z, digits 0 to 9
password length 1 to 6 characters
(the device allows for entering letters,
which however are rejected by the
counterpart station)
password length must be 6
characters
(the device allows for entering
shorter password, which however
is rejected by the counterpart
station)
password length 1 to 6 characters
