Readout Parameter Access Code
Readout Parameter Access Code
An access code must be entered before machine-related installation
parameters can be set or changed. This prevents inadvertent
adjustments to the installation setup parameters.
Access to Machine Parameter Operations
Refer to the Setup section also.
Begin by pressing the SETUP soft key.
Press the soft key INSTALLATION SETUP.
Press the access code numbers 8891 using the numeric key pad.
Press the ENTER key
The readout is now ready for machine parameter setting operations
IMPORTANT!
The access code is 8891.
IMPORTANT!
To prevent setup parameters from being changed, remove
this page from the Reference Manual after initially setting
up the readout system. Retain this information in a safe
place for future use.
