Logging on to the OS32C

There are 3 types of access levels:
• Operator Access Level (Operator)
To log on to the OS32C with this access level, a password is not required. This access level cannot make
changes to OS32C configurations. Only verification and monitoring of existing configuration is available.
• Maintenance Access Level (Maintenance)
To log on to the OS32C with this access level, a password is required. This access level allows a user to
modify the non-safety parameters only. This includes the warning zone shapes as well as the non-safety
critical parameters on page 50.
• Supervisory Access Level (Supervisor)
To log on to the OS32C with this access level, a password is required. This access level allows a user to
check, change and monitor OS32C configuration information.
NOTE: When planning to remotely log on to an OS32C that is located on a different subnet from the subnet of
the PC the following steps are needed during initial setup:
-The OS32C must have a dedicated password, the default password must be changed.
-The OS32C should be configured with a specific static IP address.
This will allow remote logon with full read/write access to the OS32C configuration.

Detecting the OS32C on the network

To connect to the OS32C using the configuration software, the user needs to find the IP address of the
OS32C on the network. Select Discover Sensors from the Utilities menu.
Since the configuration software is connected to the OS32C via Ethernet, Windows Security Alert is
displayed when Windows firewall is activated. Select Unblock. The alert will not be displayed once it is
unblocked.
