Only passcodes with
All Screens access let you do software updates and set passcode
permissions.
Each Passcode is unique; the software will not let you create duplicate Passcodes. Fur-
ther, to prevent accidental lockout, the software requires you to have at least one pass-
code with
All Screens (administrator) privileges.
1. From the main menu, navigate to
System
Setup
and then to Security.
The Security screen lets you set front-panel lock-
out time, create new passcodes, review and/or as-
sign authorization levels for existing passcodes,
and delete passcodes.
If the 8400 is already under security control, you
must enter an
All Screens-level passcode to enter
the Security screen.
2. Set the Security Screen “Lockout” parameter.
The choices are 1, 2, 4, and 8 hours, or
Off.
Front Panel lockout only occurs when the lockout value is not
Off.
The Lockout field sets the time delay between the last user interaction with the
front panel and automatic front-panel lockout. Once the front panel is locked
out, you can only regain access by entering a valid passcode.
The Lockout field does not affect PC Remote connections. Once connected,
the PC Remote application does not time out automatically; it remains con-
nected until explicitly disconnected by its user.
The lockout timer begins at the top of the next minute. For example, if you set
Lockout to be 1 minute at 9:10:33 AM and do not touch the front panel again,
the front panel will lock out at 9:12:00 AM.
3. Create a new passcode (optional).
A) Select the “New” button from the Security screen.
The “Create New Passcode Screen” appears.
B) Use the “virtual keyboard” to create a passcode.
Use the
Locate button to navigate to each character.
Then press
Enter to accept that character.
The letters on the virtual keyboard are all upper-
case. When you use the passcode later, you must
enter it using capital letters because the passcode is
