Note
Secure passwords
SINAMICS does not specify any password rules for the assignment of passwords. You can
therefore assign any passwords without restriction. STARTER does not make any checks for
illegal characters or passwords which have already been used. Therefore, as the user, you
are responsible for the required password security.
Use a sufficiently long password (max. ten characters). Use special characters and avoid
passwords which you have already used elsewhere.
Please note that if the Windows language settings are changed, errors can occur when
subsequently checking the password. If you use language-specific special characters, you
must ensure that the same language setting is active on the computer for subsequent entry
of the password.
To enable a user and activate a password for read and write access, proceed as follows:
1. Click the checkbox of the user you want to enable (e.g. enable "SINAMICS" user, etc.).
2. Click the "With password" option button in the corresponding setting area.
3. Click the "Specify password" button.
4. Enter the new password (max. ten characters) in the "New password" field. Pay attention
5. Repeat the input in the "Confirm password" field.
6. Click "OK" to confirm the input.

For security reasons, the password entries displayed in the two input fields are encrypted.
If both password entries were identical, the input dialog box is closed. If both entries do
not match, the input dialog box remains open and an error message is displayed. At the
same time, the two entries in the input dialog are cleared. In this case, you must enter the
password again in the two input fields.
