1 Additional service mode

item

2 Master Password The master password mechanism has been eliminated.

3 Password for access to mail

boxes

orientations.

the expense of a lower FCOT).

With this change, the system management password will be the only
password for the tasks in question.

Access to a mail box has been made possible using the system management
password in consideration of loss of individual passwords.

An item to clear the system control password was added to the service
mode as a countermeasure in the event that the system control password is
forgotten.
