Establishing Access Security
on a Port
Although the password feature is available, it is not
required as a factory default. If used, it ensures access
security before device control is passed to a device
connected to a port. The password configuration option
can be individually set for the COM or MODEM port, or
both if security is needed on both port types. The default
is None. The password itself is set separately (refer to the
following section, Setting a Password).
To establish access security on a port,
1. From the top-level menu screen, select Cnfig.
2. Select the configuration option set to be copied
into the Edit area by using the appropriate
Function key. Use the scroll keys, if necessary.
3. Select Edit.
4. From the Edit screen, press the key until the
User selection appears on the screen.
5. Select User.
