Access Control with Password Section 7-3
7-3 Access Control with Password
The NE1A-series Controller can register a password in its nonvolatile mem-
ory. The password can be used to prevent unexpected or unauthorized
access to the Controller from a person other than a user (i.e., a safety man-
ager). No password is set by default; the user needs to register one.
Use the Network Configurator to set or change the password for the NE1A-
series Controller. For information on procedures for setting the password
using the Network Configurator, refer to 3-6 Device Password Protection in
the DeviceNet Safety System Configuration Manual (Cat. No. Z905).
7-3-1 Scope of Access Control
The following operations require the user to enter a password. The NE1A-
series Controller does not perform the following operations unless the pass-
word matches.
• Downloading configuration data
• Locking or unlocking the configuration
• Executing the NE1A-series Controller reset service
• Changing the operating mode
• Changing the password
7-3-2 Lost Password
