 Setting Passwords
 Before a Remote Module user can communicate with the Switch
Module, the system administrator must program a password for
each remote user. As a default, all passwords are disabled.
 Up to 100 passwords can be programmed into the Switch Module.
This allows a number of different users to access the Switch
Module at different times. However, only one Remote Module user
can be connected to an individual Switch Module at any one time.
 The first two digits of each password identify each one of the 100
passwords (00–99). When you assign each remote user a two-
digit user number, this user number becomes the first two digits of
the user’s password. The third digit of the password determines
whether the user can change his or her password. If you want to
prevent the user from changing the password, assign a 9 as the
third digit of the password. If you want the user to be able to
change the password, assign a digit from 0-8 as the third digit.
 Users with a password that contains a 9 as the third digit, are
instructed to contact the system administrator for assistance in
changing the password.
 A user that does not have a 9 as the third digit of the password is
permitted to change only his or her own password. If the first two
digits of the new password do not correspond to the user number,
the new password is not accepted. An exception to the above is
password “00,” which is used by the system administrator.
