A passcode access security feature is provided with the 489. The passcode is defaulted to "0" (without the quotes) at the
time of shipping. Passcode protection is ignored when the passcode is "0". In this case, the setpoint access jumper is the
only protection when programming setpoints from the front panel keypad and setpoints may be altered using the RS232
and RS485 serial ports without access protection. If however, the passcode is changed to a non-zero value, passcode pro-
tection is enabled. The access jumper must be installed and the passcode must be entered, to program setpoints from the
front panel keypad. The passcode must also be entered individually from each serial communications port to gain setpoint
programming access from that port.
To enable passcode protection on a new relay, follow the procedure below:
1. Press then until the
CHANGE PASSCODE message is displayed.
2. Select "Yes" and follow directions to enter a new passcode 1 to 8 digits in length.
3. Once a new passcode (other than 0) is programmed, it must be entered to gain setpoint access whenever setpoint
access is restricted. Assuming that a non-zero passcode has been programmed and setpoint access is restricted, then
selecting the passcode subgroup causes the ENTER PASSCODE AGAIN message to appear.
4. Enter the correct passcode. A flash message will advise if the code is incorrect and allow a retry. If it is correct and the
setpoint access jumper is installed, the SETPOINT ACCESS: Permitted message appears.
5. Setpoints can now be entered. Exit the passcode message with the key and program the appropriate setpoints.
If no keypress occurs for 5 minutes, access will be disabled and the passcode must be re-entered. Removing the set-
point access jumper or setting
SETPOINT ACCESS to "Restricted" also disables setpoint access immediately.
If a new passcode is required, gain setpoint access by entering the current valid passcode. Press to display the
CHANGE PASSCODE message and follow the directions. If an invalid passcode is entered, the encrypted passcode is view-
able by pressing . Consult GE Multilin with this number if the currently programmed passcode is unknown. The pass-
code can be determined with deciphering software.
