Device Information

The version of the embedded software (firmware), serial number, and style

number are available from the front panel or the communication ports.

Three free-form fields (Device ID, Station ID, and User ID) can be used

to enter information to identify the BE1-11d. These fields are used by

many of the reporting functions to identify the BE1-11d reporting the

information. Examples of BE1-11d identification field uses include station

name, circuit number, relay system, and purchase order.

Device Security

Security settings affect read and write access. Passwords provide access

security for six distinct functional access areas: Read, Control, Operator,

Settings, Design, and Administrator. Each username/password is assigned

an access area with access to that area and each area below it. An

administrator password provides access to all six of the functional areas.

A second dimension of security is provided by the ability to restrict access

for any of the access areas to only specific communication ports.

For example, you could set up security to deny access to control commands

through the Ethernet port.
