3.If you do not want to allow front panel programming using the Standard security meter password then double-click on the Display Options module and change the Front Panel Programming register to disallow.

NOTE

If you allow front panel programming when you set up Advanced security, the meter password (used in Standard security) is still active through the front panel.
