Logging In and Out of the System

Introduction

The 4100 system uses four access levels, referred to by the numbers one through four, to
control what system operators can do with the system. The system typically operates at access
level one, which allows an operator to accomplish basic tasks without logging in to the
system.
Other functions – for example, the use of the user-defined function keys – are passcode
protected to prevent access by unauthorized personnel.
