4.2.1 BLANK PASSWORDS
A blank password is effectively a zero-length password. Through the front panel it is entered by confirming the
passw
ord entry without actually entering any password characters. Through a communications port the Courier
and Modbus protocols each have a means of writing a blank password to the IED. A blank password disables the
need for a password at the level that this password is applied.
Blank passwords have a slightly different validation procedure. If a blank password is entered through the front
panel, the following text is displayed, after which the procedure is the same as already described:
BLANK PASSWORD
ENTERED CONFIRM
Blank passwords cannot be configured if the lower level password is not blank.
Blank passw
ords affect the fall back level after inactivity timeout or logout.
The ‘fallback level’ is the password level adopted by the IED after an inactivity timeout, or after the user logs out.
This will be either the level of the highest-level password that is blank, or level 0 if no passwords are blank.
