during this flashing period, the protection function is activated or deactivated.
If the password protection is entered incorrectly, this action can only be repeated after a
short delay. Every repeated incorrect password entry results in an extension of the delay
period between entry possibilities.

Before switching on password protection, make sure that you and the group of authorized
users are
all in possession of the password.
If password protection is switched on, you need the password for all changes to the device
settings. You also require the password to call the "PASSWORD" dialog box again in order to
switch off access protection or to change the password.
Note
If you have forgotten the password, please contact Technical Assistance. You will receive a
new password from them.
