A PIN is recommended because carrying out parameterization while the device is in operation
can change the status of signals.
8.12.1 PIN Code [0x004D]
To enable the lock, a valid PIN code between 001 and 999 must be entered in parameter [
P1n
] in the EF
menu or via IO-Link.
If you attempt to alter a parameter while the lock is active, [
Loc
] will flash on the display and you will
be asked to enter your PIN code.
The PIN code can be enabled and disabled with the parameter [
P1n
] in the EF menu or via IO-Link (value
> 000).
The following describes how to set a PIN Code using the operating and display element.
ü
In the EF menu, select the parameter [
P1n
].

button.
ð
The current PIN code will be displayed, and the digit on the right will flash.
2. Use the

If write protection is activated, the desired parameters can be changed within one minute after the cor-
rect code is entered. If no changes are made within one minute, write protection is automatically reacti-
vated.
The PIN code “000” must be set for permanent deactivation of the lock.
Full access to the device is still possible via IO-Link even if a PIN is enabled. The current PIN can also be
read out and changed/deleted (PIN = 000) via IO-Link.
8.12.2 Unlocking the Menus
Menus can be protected against unauthorized access by defining a PIN code [
P1n
] in the EF menu. If you
attempt to alter a parameter while the lock is active, [
Loc
] will flash on the display, or you will be asked
to enter your PIN code.
The menus can be unlocked as follows:
1. Use the
button to enter the first digit of the PIN code.
2. Use the
to confirm the first digit and go to entry of the second digit.
3. Repeat this process to enter all the digits of the PIN code.
ð

VnC
] is displayed.
ð
When an invalid PIN is entered, the message [
Loc
] is displayed and the menus remain locked.
ð
Once the PIN has been entered successfully, you will have one minute to edit the parameter in ques-
tion.
The PIN code in the [
P1n
] parameter must be set to 000 in order to permanently deactivate the lock.
The PIN is set to 000 on delivery. The menus are not protected.
