In case the password protection is activated, menu 5.0 “User management” will be available.
The menus 1.0 “Setup”, 3.0 “Language, Date & Time” and 5.0 “User management” are
protected by the password.
The default login values are:
User: ADMIN

Two DIP switches are located at the bottom side of the weighing module SIWAREX WP241
just next to the Ethernet port (accessible via the air inlet).
