Chapter 6. Utility Menu

Pressing any key after entering a passcode causes the unit to return to the previous active menu. In this case it returns to 2)CONFIG, 2)UNIT, 1)CNTRL PORT, 1)DATA RATE to permit changing the data rate.

Change/ Set a Passcode

The passcode can be changed or set at any time or eliminated alto- gether through the Utility menu item 3)SET PASSCODE. This pro- cedure requires the current passcode (if one is established) for operation.

The passcode can only be entered by using numbers. After enter- ing the desired passcode, press Enter.

Set a null passcode at the 3)SET PASSCODE menu by pressing Enter without any numbers. This sets a null passcode and grants unlimited access.

Special Feature

For added security protection the unit is equipped with an auto- matic time-out for operation with the password. After ten minutes of inactivity, the unit reverts to limited access operation. To make changes in the configuration, the passcode can be reentered. If the passcode number is lost, contact ADTRAN Customer Service for assistance.

No Passcode D esired

At the New Passcode prompt (in the Set Passcode menu), press Enter without any numerical entry. The system nullifies the need to enter a password for subsequent use and proceeds to the Unit ID prompt.
