way.

effect.
Note that the encryption key generated based on the database password is per-
manently saved in the dLAN device. If at some later point the respective device
is to be managed in another database, the encryption key saved in the dLAN
device has to be deleted beforehand. Otherwise the message "Access denied"
appears when trying to access the device.
You can delete the encryption key of a dLAN device as follows:
a) Open the device's context menu by right-clicking on the respective dLAN
device. In the context menu, select the menu item Change encryption key.
This opens the dialog from Fig. 41.
b) In both fields in the dialog, enter the database password for the database
in which the dLAN device has been managed up to this point. This enables
OK if there were no errors with the entry. Now confirm your input by clicking
on OK.
You can now once again use the device without any restrictions.
