Setting security

You can add security to the front panel by password-protecting the autoloader's functionality. The security setting only protects the front panel functionality. The default setting is Off, meaning that no password is required. However, you can enable the security option so that users must enter a password to access functionality.

Security option

When you first turn on the autoloader, the security option is set to Off. Use the following procedure to enable the security option. You must have an administrator-level password to set passwords.

To set the Security option:

1From the Main menu, scroll to Configuration, then press ENTER. The Configuration submenu opens.

2Scroll to Security. If a check mark appears after the word Security, the security option is On. If no check mark appears, the security option is Off.

3To change the option, press ENTER. For example, if the security option was set to On, it is now set to Off, and no check mark appears.

Setting magazines

In some cases, autoloader owners have been charged Independent Software Vendor (ISV) licensing fees for two-magazine SuperLoader 3s, even though only one magazine was configured. This happened because the ISV software registered the autoloader as a two-magazine device, regardless of the number of magazines actually configured. You can set the number of magazines in the autoloader.
