6.8.1.7 Configuring the safety password
The safety password protects the safety parameters against maloperation by unauthorized
users.
The safety password can be assigned either before starting to commission the safety functions
or at the end. The drive issues an alarm as long as a password is not assigned.
Note
The safety password is write protection specified in the appropriate standards to prevent
against maloperation by unauthorized users.
The password must also include the following elements to provide protection against
unauthorized access, e.g. unauthorized persons.
● At least 8 characters
● Uppercase and lowercase letters
● Numbers and special characters (e.g.: ?!%+ ...)
It is not permissible that the safety password is used elsewhere.
Checking the password
The length of the password is checked by the converter. There is no check for uppercase and
lowercase letters and special characters!
Assigning the safety password
If you have not yet assigned a safety password, the "Assign safety password" button is active
in the "Function selection" and "Completion" screen forms.
1. Click the "Assign safety password" button.
The password dialog with the same name opens.
2. Enter the new safety password in the "Safety password" field.
3. Repeat the input in the "Confirm safety password" field.
