We recommend that you also assign a password to the "User" authorization level so that no
unauthorized person can use the chamber.

User management, authorization levels and password protection

The available functions depend on the current authorization level "Master", "Service", "Admin" or "User".
The authorization levels are hierarchical: Every authorization includes all functions of the next lower level.
"Master" authorization level
• Highest authorization level, only for developers
• Extensive authorization for controller operation and configuration, outputs/inputs, alarm settings, pa-
rameter sets and operating ring display
• All passwords can be changed in the "log out" submenu (chap. 12.3).
"Service" authorization level
• Authorization level only for BINDER service
• Extensive authorization for controller operation and configuration, access to service data
• The passwords for "Service", "Admin" and "User" authorization levels can be changed in the "log out"
submenu (chap. 12.3).
"Admin" authorization level
• Expert authorization level, for the administrator
• Authorization for controller configuration and network settings and for operating those controller func-
tions required for operating the chamber. Restricted access to service data.
• Password (factory setting): "2".
• The passwords for "Admin" and "User" authorization levels can be changed in the "log out" submenu
(chap. 12.3).
"User" authorization level
• Standard authorization level for the chamber operator
• Authorization for operating the controller functions required for operating the chamber.
• No authorization for controller configuration and network settings. The "Settings" and "Service" sub-
menus of the main menu are not available.
• Password (factory setting): "1"
• The password for the "User" authorization level can be changed in the "log out" submenu (chap. 12.3).
As soon as a password has been assigned for an authorization level, the access to this level and the
related controller functions are only available after log-in with the appropriate password.
If for an authorization level no password is assigned, the related controller functions of this level are
available for every user without login.
If passwords have been assigned for all authorization levels, access to the controller functions is locked
without login.
