The upgrade procedure
E-4 Preliminary January 30, 1998 Pipeline User’s Guide
Instructions for completing these tasks are described in this appendix. Before you
go any further, check to see which version of the system software is currently
installed on your Pipeline and which Security profile is activated.
To see which software version is currently running on the Pipeline, look in the
Sys Option status window. Refer to the Reference Guide for information on using
the status windows.
Activating a Security Profile
If the Security profile that is currently activated has Field Service disabled, you
need to activate a Security profile with Field Service enabled to upgrade. To
activate the Security profile that has Field Service enabled:
1
Press Ctrl-D to open the DO menu, and then press P (or select P=Password).
Main Edit Menu
DO
>0=ESC
P=Password

In the list of Security profiles, select the Security profile you want to enable.
By default Field Service is enabled in the Full Access profile.
Main Edit Menu
Security Profile
00-301 Default
00-302
00-301 Full Access
The Pipeline then prompts for that profile’s password.

Type the password you assigned to the profile and press Enter to accept it.

If you enter the right password, a message states that the password was
accepted and the Pipeline is using the new security level.
