Assigning the password and password list
You can assign passwords only to those password levels that are equal to or less
than your password level.
A password and a password level are assigned as follows:
Step
1 In the password list, select the corresponding
password number.
2 Press the SHIFT key.
3 Depending on the entry method you selected
(see Section 5.3), the password is entered with
the function keys (K-keys) or the cursor keys.
Enter a password that does not yet exist. A
leading zero in the password is ignored.
4 Accept the password with the
Enter key.
5 With the "Cursor right" key, move the cursor to
the password level field.
6 Press the SHIFT key.
7 Enter a password level 1 to 3 for the password,
and confirm it. You can only enter a password

Changing the Password and Password Level
To change a password, call up the password entry as you did when assigning the
password, and overwrite the old password with the new one.
If you change your own password, you can then no longer view or change this
password. You first have to log on again with your new password.
If you only want to change the password level but not the password, use the
"Cursor right" key to position the cursor in the field for the password level and enter
the new level there.
Deleting the Password
To delete a password, call up the password entry as you did when assigning and
changing the password, and enter a zero as the new password.
