The Display Section's password function is divided into the following two func-
tions.
• Password Function
Requires a password input before allowing operations on a password-pro-
tected functional object.
• Password with Levels Function
Requires a password for authentication when performing operations on a
password-protected functional object for the first time. Once authentica-
tion has been completed, operations can be performed on all functional
objects of the same or lower password levels. Operations cannot be per-
formed on functional objects protected with higher-level passwords.
The passwords are set from the CX-Designer and up to five passwords (5 lev-
els) can be set for a single project. The passwords can be changed from the
System Menu.
Perform the following procedure from the System Menu to change the pass-
word.
1. Select the Password Tab.
2. Select the password to be changed using the Level 1 to Level 5 Buttons.
3. Input the old password and new password in the corresponding fields, and
then input the new password again in the confirmation field. Input the pass-
word using the virtual keyboard (text in-put dialog box) that is displayed by
pressing the input column.
4. After changing the password, press the Write Button to save the setting.
Save separately for each password level that is changed.
When changing passwords, do not reset the PT or turn OFF the power until
the write operation has been completed (i.e., the Write Button has returned to
the status before being pressed). If the password is not saved properly, the
screen may malfunction.
