3M™ Rapid Detection Reader Managing Settings

Managing Settings

The 3M Rapid Detection Reader can be operated immediately after set-up using the pre- programmed default settings. Each Reader also has customizable features which can be configured to enhance its functionality and data management capability. Customizable features include LQC timer, Operator ID and password, and data transfer options (USB, print, network). Some of these features can be configured in the CM Settings menu. In the default configuration, these settings can only be viewed or changed by an operator with Supervisor access. Most feature configurations are set using the Reader Configuration Utility (RCU) by a Full Access User. For instruction on configuring settings on the CM, refer to Edit Settings and Edit Operators. For instructions on configuring settings using the RCU, refer to Editing Settings Using the Reader Configuration Utility (RCU).

Accessing the Settings Menus			Figure 20. Settings Menu

From the Main Menu (Figure 4), touch Settings. Access to the Settings menu is Operator ID and Password protected. The default login for access to the Settings menus is:

Operator ID: SUPERVISOR

PASSWORD: PASSWORD

Both entries are case-sensitive. To provide additional security, it is highly recommended that this login be changed.

NOTE: The default privilege access to the Settings menu is Supervisors only (Figure 25). The privilege access to this menu can only be changed via the RCU. In the default setting, any operator defined in the Operator List as Supervisor [Operator Type] is able to access the Settings menu. Refer to Managing Operators for additional information.

Touch View Settings from the Settings menu (Figure 20). This will open the screen shown in Figure 21. Settings in the View Settings screen cannot be edited.
