Viewing Or Changing Security Settings - GE PM880 User Manual

To guard against accidental or intentional tampering, the PM880
includes a password-based security system. The system has three
security levels. Individual passcodes protect the three security
levels; they consist of one to eight digits. The three levels are as
follows:
•
User Level - allows access to the display and non-critical
meter settings (such as resetting the clock).
•
Operator Level - allows access to most of the meter settings
used to set up the meter such as probe selection and
calibration data. This level also allows you to delete files
such as old logs and unneeded site files.
•
Service Level - provides access to all meter settings, and is
available only to GE Infrastructure Sensing representatives
and authorized service agents.
The backup battery maintains the file system, so that if the battery
fails or the drive is erased, the passcodes will revert to the default
values. For both the User and Operator level, the default code is
2719.
Use the sections that follow to setup security levels and enter new
passcodes.
