Security and password access

Access to the transmitter via the NFC interface requires the use
of an authentication password. The NFC interface supports
two access accounts, each with a separate password: a user
account for normal use and an account to reset the user
account password.
Enter the account authentication password in the Velox phone/
tablet productivity app before bringing the configuration
device into contact with the transmitter. Data exchange will not
be successful if an incorrect password is used.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
Password and PIN details are entered via the Setting
option in the Instrument List pane – refer to page
26 for navigation details.
User account – standard level privileges
Factory default password: am2k
This is the main user account for general access to the
transmitter and has a user-settable password.
Process values, user configuration settings, transmitter
diagnostics conditions and logger data are accessible with the
standard level privileges provided by the User account.
These are the only items that users are expected to need during
normal flowmeter use. Advanced settings and factory-specific
configuration (not needed to for normal flowmeter
configuration and control) are accessible only with high levels
of access privilege. Temporary elevated access privileges can
be obtained only with a meter specific one-time use command
generated by ABB technical support and service teams.
IMPORTANT (NOTES)
• It is strongly recommended that the account's
factory default authentication password is changed
from the factory default on commissioning the
flowmeter.
• When changing a password, record it somewhere
secure, especially if each flowmeter has a unique
password. If a password is lost or unknown, the
flowmeter must be reset to its factory default
settings to regain access.
Contact your ABB technical support or service engineer for help
if needing access to advanced settings or factory
configuration. (Note, more data is exchanged via the NFC
connection with higher levels of access so it takes longer to
read from the flowmeter when these privileges are being
granted.)
IMPORTANT (NOTE)
The command code is a meter-specific one-time user
hash code generated by ABB technical support/
service teams only. Contact your regular ABB
technical support or service engineer for help if
needing to reset the user account password.
