Commissioning password
Current legislation states that in order to prevent tampering and potentially
hazardous programming errors, access to the pass codes required to enter
commissioning mode should only be available to qualified and trained personnel.
Enter commissioning
This is done from the run mode by pressing and holding down the
OK
button for 5 seconds.
The bar graphs will disappear and the display will show 'PASS
CODE' with '8888' at the bottom right corner of the screen. The
flashing leading digit indicates the position of the cursor. The
default, or factory set pass code is 7452 but this can be changed
from within the commissioning mode. The pass code can be
entered by using the and buttons to increase or decrease
the flashing value and the and buttons to move the cursor.
Pressing
OK
will enter the pass code. If an incorrect pass code is
used, the display automatically returns to the run mode.
This page MUST be removed after
commissioning and kept in a safe,
access controlled location.
