Supervisor and User Security
You can limit access to the Setup Program or to the system using the Supervi-
sor and User password options (the Supervisor password gives you access to
the Setup Program and the system; the User password, only to the system).
Note that you must create a supervisor password before you create a user
password.
When you select the Supervisor Security option, a dialog box will appear,
allowing you to enter a password. You may either type the password in, or
click on the onscreen buttons. Your password must be between one and six
characters long.

the two passwords do not match, you will be prompted to enter a new pass-

of characters both times. Once this is accomplished, a dialog box will appear
and notify you that the Supervisor Password has been installed. You may then
select the User Security option and enter a password for the user.
You can enter a new User password at any time simply by selecting the User
Security option, and typing in a new password. To enter a new Supervisor
