38 PRT-KLCD Protege Alphanumeric LCD Keypad User Manual | April 2011
6 Access Levels
Access levels are used to define what Areas, Doors, Menus, Floors and Elevators a group of users will be able to
access and/or control. An access level MUST be assigned to a user to allow them in to the system. By default
the Protege System provides three default access levels. The Protege system supports up to 250 access levels.
6.1 Master Access Level
The master access level is a special access level that is not limited and provides full access to all of the
programmed system with the exclusion of the Installer Menu.
The Master access level controls the ability for a master user to login to the system. It is strongly
recommended not to change the Master access level or other records that are programmed for the
master to operate correctly.
6.2 Programming Access Levels
Access levels should be programmed for groups of users, for example administration, warehouse and
management. Where the group can clearly be identified by certain doors and functions that they need to
perform. This will ensure that access levels are managed effectively.
Programming Access Levels
Enter your [USER CODE] to logon to the keypad.
In the example access level configuration access level AC010 is being edited. Modifying the master
access level or the other default access levels is not recommended and may prevent access to the
LCD Keypad or other system functions.
