50 PowerSmart Socket Power Quality Meter
Password Security
The setup menus are secured by 8-digit user passwords.
Every time you enter programming mode, you are prompted
for a correct password. The meter is primarily shipped with
all passwords preset to 9 at the factory. See Meter Security in
Chapter 2 for more information on the meter security levels.
It is recommended that you change the factory set passwords
as fast as possible to protect your setups and accumulated
data from unauthorized changes. See Configuring Meter
Passwords in Chapter 5 on how to change passwords in your
meter.
Enter the password as you enter numeric values. As you
move to the next place, the digit entered is saved and then
zeroed. If you missed a digit, you should re-type all
preceding digits before you reach the missed place again.
Once the password is set to the desired value, press and hold
the SELECT/ENTER button for more than 1 second. If the
password you entered is correct, you move to the main
device menu, otherwise you return back to the data display.
Setup Menus and Access Rights
The PowerSmart Socket PQM setup is menu-driven. The
meter provides 12 menus that allow local accessing a limited
number of meter setups and control functions listed in the
following table. Access to particular menus is granted
depending on the security level of the password you entered.
