5.18.3 ZONE PASSWORD

NOTE: Make sure that the zone password(s) are not
lost because they cannot be overridden in the field.
The PCConfigure software must be used to display the
lost password or program a new password.
Each zone can be programmed with a password
by the PCConfigure software to prevent unauthorized
reprogramming of zone by keypad programming.
When this password is programmed, it must be entered
before system or channel parameters in that zone can
be changed by keypad programming. The zone pass-
word is programmed in the Zones > Edit Zone screen
of the PCConfigure programmer. This screen is
displayed by clicking the Edit Zone button. A different
password can be programmed for each zone.
When an attempt is made to select a system or
channel parameter in a password protected zone,
"PASSWORD" is flashed. The password is always
eight digits long and is entered using the same proce-
dure as used for the power-up password described in
Section 3.2. After the password is entered, system and
channel parameters for that zone can be reprogrammed
normally.

5.18.4 ZONE CHANGE PARAMETER

The "CHNG ZONE" menu parameter selects the
zone containing the conventional channel to be repro-
grammed. It does not change the zone selected for
normal operation.
