Manager Passwords

You can define two different manager passwords, one to prevent unauthorized access to the machine's PRG and Z modes and one to prevent unauthorized access to the X mode.

Since the management report taken in the Z mode resets transaction totals to zero, a management password pre- vents the accidental resetting of these totals by unauthorized personnel. The X mode password safeguards the confiden- tiality of transaction report data.
