DANGER
Explosion hazard. Danger of death.
∅ Do NOT introduce any substance into the cabinet which is combustible or explosiv e at
working temperature.
∅ NO explosive dust or air-solvent mixture in the inner chamber.
Any solvent contained in the charging material must not be explosive or inflammable. I.e., irrespective of the solvent concentration in the steam room, NO explosive mixture with air must form. The temperature inside the chamber must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the charging material. Familiarize yourself with the physical and chemical properties of the charging material, as well as the contained moisture constituent and its behavior with the addition of heat energy and hum i dity.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 10/126
Page 11
Familiarize yourself with any potential health risks caused by the charging material, the contained mois­ture constituent or by reaction products that may arise during the temperature process. Take adequate measures to exclude such risks prior to putting the cabinet into operation.
DANGER
Electrical hazard. Danger of death.
∅ The cabinet must NOT become wet during operation or maintenance.
The cabinets were produced in accordance with VDE regulations and were routinely tested in accordance to VDE 0411-1 (IEC 61010-1).
During and shortly after operation, the temperature of the inner surfaces almost equals the set-point.
CAUTION
The glass doors, the glass door handles, the inner chamber, and the light cassettes (cabinet with lights) will become hot during operation.
Danger of burning.
∅ Do NOT touch the glass doors, the inner surfaces, the light cassettes or the charging
material during operation.
WARNING

1.6 Intended use

Datacolor CONDITIONER™ sample conditioning cabinets are suitable for exact conditioning of harmless materials. A mixture of any component of the charging material with air must NOT be explosive. The op­erating temperature must lie below the flash point or below the sublimation point of the charging material. Any component of the charging material must NOT be able to release toxic gases.
Other applications are not approved. The cabinets are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive
93/42/EEC.
Following the instructions in this operating manual and conducting regular maintenance work (chap. 20) are part of the intended use.
DANGER
Explosion or implosion hazard. Danger of poisoning. Danger of death.
∅ Do NOT introduce any substance combustible or explosive at working temperature into
the cabinet, in particular no energy sources such as batteries or lithium-ion batteries.
∅ NO explosive dust or air-solvent mixture in the inner chamber. ∅ Do NOT introduce any substance which could lead to release of toxic gases.
The charging material shall not contain any corrosive ingredients that may damage the ma­chine components made of stainless steel, aluminum, and copper. Such ingredients include in particular acids and halides. Any corrosive damage caused by such ingredients is excluded from liability by Datacolor.
WARNING: If customer should use a cabinet running in non-supervised continuous opera­tion, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen or samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two cabinets, if this is feasible.
In case of foreseeable use of the cabinet there is no risk for the user through the integration of the cabi­net into systems or by special environmental or operating conditions in the sense of EN 61010-1:2010. For this, the intended use of the cabinet and all its connections must be observed.

1.7 Operating instructions

Depending on the application and location of the cabinet, the operator of the cabinet must provide the relevant information for safe operation of the cabinet in a set of operating instructions.
Keep these operating instructions with the cabinet at all times in a place where they are clearly visible. They must be comprehensible and written in the language of the employees.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 12/126
Page 13

1.8 Measures to prevent accidents

The operator of the cabinet must observe the following rule: “Betreiben von Arbeitsmitteln. Betreiben von Kälteanlagen, Wärmepumpen und Kühleinrichtungen“ (Operation of work equipment. Operation of refrig­eration systems, heat pumps and refrigeration equipment) (GUV-R 500 chap. 2.35) (for Germany).
The manufacturer took the following measures to prevent ignition and explosions:
• Indications on the type plate

1.9 Resistance of the humidity sensor against harmful substances

The following list of harmful substances refers only to the humidity sensor and does not include any other materials incorporated in the cabinet or prohibited substances in relation to explosion protection.
Some gases - especially clean gases - do not have any influence on the humidity sensor. Others do have a very small influence, whereas others may influence the sensor to a larger extent.
• The following gases do not influence the sensor and the humidity measurement: Argon (Ar), carbon
dioxide (CO
• The following gases do not or to a minor extent influence the sensor and the humidity measurement:
Butane (C
• The following gases do not, or to a minor extent influence the sensor and the humidity measurement,
provided that the indicated loads are not exceeded:
),helium (He), hydrogen (H2), neon (Ne), nitrogen (N2), nitrous oxide (N2O), oxygen (O2)
2
), ethane (C2H6), methane (CH4), natural gas propane (C3H8)
4H10
These values are to be considered as approximate values. The sensor resistance largely depends on the temperature and humidity conditions during the time of exposure to harmful substances. Avoid simultaneous condensation. Tolerated error of measurement: ± 2 %r.H. The maximum work place threshold limit value is one that can be regarded as harmless for humans.
• Vapors of oil and fat are dangerous for the sensor because they may condensate at the sensor and
thus prevent its function (insulating layer). For similar reasons it is not possible to measure smoke gases.

2. Cabinet description

The Datacolor CONDITIONER™ sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with a multifunctional micro­processor display controller with 2-channel technology for temperature and humidity plus a digital display accurate to one-tenth of a degree resp. 0.1% r.H. With its comprehensive program control functions, the display program controller MB2 permits the high precision performance of temperature and humidity cy­cles.
The sample conditioning cabinet with multifunctional microprocessor display controller MB2 is available in two different types:
• without light unit
• with light unit
The sample conditioning cabinet is designed for exact conditioning of harmless materials such as paper, textiles, plastics, building materials, to condition the samples at fixed temperature and humidity, so as ensure no change in color of the samples occurs due to varying temperature and humidity
The APT.line™ preheating chamber system guarantees high level of spatial and time-based temperature precision, thanks to the direct and distributed air circulation into the interior. The fan supports exact at­tainment and maintenance of the desired temperature accuracy. Furthermore, it permits simulating exact­ly and over long periods constant conditions for other applications such as sample conditioning for mate­rial testing of paper, textiles, plastics, building materials, etc.
A resistance humidifying system humidifies the air. For this purpose, use deionized (demineralized) wa­ter. The option BINDER Pure Aqua Service allows using the cabinet with any degree of water hardness.
The cabinet with lights unit is equipped with “Bio Vital” fluorescent tubes installed in two light cassettes. They illuminate very homogeneously the racks below them. Both light cassettes are permanently con­nected. The cable length permits easily removal to replace the fluorescent tubes. Control is effected via the MB2 controller. Light is dimmable in 1% steps.
The inner chamber, the pre-heating chamber and the interior side of the doors are all made of stainless steel V2A (German material no. 1.4301, US equivalent AISI 304). The housing is RAL 7035 powder­coated. All corners and edges are also completely coated.
The inner chamber is closed by a glass door that enables the samples to be viewed for a short time with­out disturbing the climate in the inner chamber.
All cabinet functions are easy and comfortable to use thanks to their clear arrangement. Major features are easy cleaning of all cabinet parts and avoidance of undesired contamination.
The efficient program controller is equipped with a multitude of operating functions, in addition to recorder and alarm functions. Programming of test cycles is easily accomplished via the modern MB2 touch screen controller. The cabinet comes equipped with an Ethernet serial interface for computer communi­cation. In addition, the BINDER communication software APT-COM™ 3 permits networking up to 30 chambers and connecting them to a PC for controlling and programming, as well as recording and repre­senting temperature and humidity data. For further options, see chap. 23.5.
The cabinet is equipped with two safety devices to protect the unit, its environment and the samples in­side from forbidden temperature excesses:
• Electric safety controller
The sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with an electric over temperature safety device class 3.1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007. It is called a “safety controller”. It serves to protect the charging material against extensive high temperatures. The safety controller is electrically independent from the main temperature controller and takes over control when a selectable set point is reached.
• Temperature fuse
The sample conditioning cabinet is equipped with a temperature fuse, class 1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007. It serves to protect the unit and prevents danger caused by considerable defects. If a temperature of about 110 °C is reached, the temperature fuse switches off the unit permanently.

4.2 Wastewater connection

Fasten the wastewater hose to the wastewater connection “OUT” (7) on the rear of the cabinet (olive ∅ 14 mm). Observe the following points:
• You can use a part of the supplied water hose as a drainage hose. In case another hose is used, it
has to be permanently resistant against at least 95 °C / 203 °F.
• Mount the wastewater hose with a maximum positive inclination of 1 m and a maximum total length of
3 m.
• Protect the cabinet end of the drainage hose with one of the supplied hose clamps.
• Reliably prevent sucking back of wastewater. The end of the wastewater hose must not be immersed
in liquids. This can be ensured e.g., by free discharge.
Waste water is collected in an internal can with a volume of approx. 0.5 liters. It i s pumped off only when required, thus there is no continuous waste water flow.
Protect the waste water supply with the supplied hose clamps.

4.3 Freshwater supply

Connect the waste water pipe before connecting the cabinet to a freshwater pipe or filling the freshwater can (option, chap. 4.5).
You can supply the cabinet with freshwater via a water pipe or by manually filling a freshwater can (op­tion, chap. 4.5).
Water intake temperature NOT below +5 °C / 41 °F and not exceeding 40 °C / 104 °F.
CAUTION
Calcification of the humidifying system. Damage to the cabinet.
Operate the cabinet with deionized (demineralized) water only.
Types of suitable water quality:
• Deionized water from a water treatment installation already existing at the customer's site. Conductivi-
ty from 1 µS /cm up to a maximum of 20 µS/cm. (Water, which is in equilibrium with the CO and has a conductivity below 1 µS/cm (ultrapure water), may cause acid corrosion due to its low pH.)

6m water hose (PVC black, 12 mm (½’’) inner diame­ter), which should be cut into 2 accordingly, for the feed hose and drain.
Pressure-resistant up to 10bar, heat resistant up to 95 °C / 203 °F.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 24/126
Page 25
Assembly:
Screw the hose burst protection device onto a water tap with a G¾ inch right turning thread connection. The connection is self-sealing. Establish the connection between the safety kit and the cabinet with a part of the supplied hose. Protect both ends of the hose by the supplied hose clamps.
We recommend connecting the hose as the last step in order to avoid twisting the hose while screwing on the safety kit.
Open the water tap slowly in order to avoid actuating the hose burst protection device.
Figure 9: Assembly of the connection kit
Protection principle of the hose burst protection device: Whenever a strong water flow of about 18 l / min. occurs, e.g. caused by a burst water hose, a valve au-
tomatically cuts off the water supply, which can be heard as a clicking noise. The water supply now re­mains shut until it is manually released.
Release of the reflux protection device:
In case the burst protection device has interrupted the water supply, first find the reason and remove it as necessary. Close the water tap. Release the valve by a half left-turn of the upper knurled part. You can hear the release of the valve as a clicking noise. Tighten the burst protection device against the water tap by a right turn. Open the water tap slowly afterwards.
Maintenance of the assembly of the hose burst protection device:
Calcification can impair valve function. We recommend an annual inspection by a skilled plumber. The plumber should demount the safety kit to check the valve by hand for functi on, calcification or blockage.
CAUTION
Danger of calcification. Impairment of valve function.
Have a plumber inspect the valve annually. Remove calcifications by citric acid or acetic acid solutions. Continue by testing the function and tightness of the mounted cabinet
Check: Quickly open the water tap while there is no cabinet connected – the valve should cut off the wa­ter flux without any delay.

To completely separate the cabinet from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug. Install the cabinet in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily pulled in case of danger.
Remark when operating the cabinet with a power frequency of 60 Hz:
WARNING
High leakage current. Electrical hazard.
Earth connection is essential before connecting supply. Check socket before inserting
plug.
When connected to a power supply 1N~ with a frequency of 60 Hz, a leakage current of more than 3.5 mAmp is possible. If grounding through the power cable is insufficient or missing, the leakage current may flow through the user’s body. Correct installation of the professional grade power socket provided by the user safely avoids this. Before connecting the chamber to the socket, please check its grounding contact type plug for appropriate construction and if it is undamaged.

4.8 Connection of the optional voltage changer

The voltage changer enables the cabinet to operate at a power frequency of 115 Volt. It is packed sepa­rately and supplied together with the cabinet.
The voltage changer is supplied with a fixed power connection cable with a NEMA 5-20P plug. It is pro­tected against excess-current with an internal over-current release category B16A. The connection is made by the customer.
CAUTION
Sliding or tilting of the voltage changer. Damage to the voltage changer. Risk of injury by lifting heavy loads.
Lift the voltage changer at both carrying handles from the pallet with two persons.
Do not install the voltage changer in the exhaust air flow at the rear of the cabinet. For the installation of the voltage changer next to the cabinet, provide a wall distance the cabinet of ap-
prox. 0.4 m / 1.3 ft.
CAUTION
Danger of overheating. Damage to the voltage changer.
∅ Do NOT install the voltage changer in unventilat ed recesses.

5.8 Performance when opening the door

When you open the door the fan starts running with minimum speed. After 60 seconds from opening the door, heating, refrigeration, humidification, dehumidification and fan
turn off. After closing the door, heating, refrigeration, humidification, dehumidif icat i on and fan turn on again.

6. Start up

6.1 Turning on the cabinet

After connecting the supply lines (chap. 4), turn on the cabinet by its main power switch (1). The lit pilot lamp shows the cabinet is ready for operation.
When the main power switch is turned on and yet the controller display is dark, the display is in stand-by mode. Press on the touchscreen to activate it.
• Open the water-tap for freshwater supply. Alternatively, f i l l the freshwater can (option, chap. 4.5).
• The humidifying and dehumidifying system must be activated (deactivated operation line “Humidity
off”, chap. 7.3 and setting “Control on”, chap. 6.3). After the first turning on of the cabinet or after an interruption of the power supply the relative humidity will
increase after a delay of about 20 minutes, as the fresh water needs to be heated first. During this period, the relative humidity can drop considerably.
The cabinet may release odors in the first few days after commissioning. This is not a quality defect. To reduce odors quickly we recommend heating up the cabinet to its nominal temperature for one day and in a well-ventilated location.
WARNING: If customer should use a cabinet running in non-supervised continuous opera­tion, we strongly recommend in case of inclusion of irrecoverable specimen or samples to split such specimen or samples and store them in at least two cabinets, if this is feasible.

6.2 Controller settings upon start up

The window „Language selection“ enables the language selection, in case that it’s activated in the “Start-up” menu. Afterwards occurs a request of the time zone and the temperature unit.
The controller will function in the operating mode, which was active before the last shut-down. It controls temperature and humidity in fixed value operating mode to the last entered values and in the program mode to the set points achieved beforehand.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 44/126

9.7.2 Set-point ramp and set-point step

You can define the type of temperature and humidity transitions for each indiv i dual program secti on.
“Ramp” mode: Gradual changes of temperature and humidity
The set-point of a given program section functions as the section’s start temperature. During the section’s duration, the set-point gradually passes to the set-point of the subsequent program section. The actual value follows the continually changing set-point.
If the last program section is in “ramp” mode and the setpoint shall change within this section, then you must program an additional section (with the shortest possible section duration) to provide the target temperature of the last program section. Otherwise, the setpoint would remain constant during the sec­tion’s duration.
Programming in the “ramp” mode allows all kinds of temperature and humidity transitions:
• Gradual changes of temperature and humidity
The setpoint changes its value gradually during the entered section duration. The actual value follows the continually moving set-point at any time.
• Program sections with constant temperature and humidity
The setpoints (initial values) of two subsequent program sections are identical; so the temperature and humidity remain constant during the entire duration of the first program section.
• Sudden changes of temperature and humidity
Steps can be programmed in ramp mode as temperature or humidity changes (ramps) that occur dur­ing a very short interval. If the duration of this transitional program section is very short (minimum en­try 1 sec), the temperature or humidity change will proceed rapidly within the minimum am ount of time.
“Step” mode: Sudden changes of temperature and humidity
The set-point of any program section functions as the section’s target value. At the start of the program section, the cabinet heats up or cools down and humidifies/dehumidifies with the maximum speed to reach the entered value; and then it holds it for the remaining section time. Therefore the set-point tem­perature remains constant for the section’s duration. These changes occur rapidly within the minimum amount of time (minimum entry: 1 second).
Programming in the “step” mode allows only two kinds of temperature and humidity transitions:
• Programming gradual changes of temperature and humidity (ramps) is impossible in the “step” mode
• Program sections with constant temperature and humidity
The setpoints (target values) of two subsequent program sections are identical; so the temperature and humidity remain constant during the entire duration of the first program section.
• Sudden changes of temperature and humidity
The entered setpoint of the section is reached as fast as possible and then held constant for the re­maining section duration.

“Ramp” or “Step”.

9.7.5 Tolerance range

You can specify a temperature and humidity program tolerance range for each program section with dif­ferent values for the tolerance minimum and maximum. When the actual value exceeds the given thresh­old, the program is interrupted. This is indicated on the display (see below). When the actual temperature is situated again within the entered tolerance limits, the program automatically continues. Therefore, the duration of the program may be extended due to the programming of tolerances.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 61/126
Page 62
Programming of tolerances may extend program duration.
An entry of “-99999” for the tolerance minimum means “minus infinite” and an entry of “999999” for the tolerance maximum means “plus infinite”. Entry of these values will never lead to program interruption. The entry of “0” for the tolerance minimum and/or maximum deactivates t he respective tolerance function.
When requesting rapid value transitions, we recommend not programming tolerance values in order to enable the maximum heating-up, cooling-down, humidification or dehumidification speed.
Section view.
• Select the field “Tolerance band min” and enter the desired lower tolerance band value. Setting range:
-99999 to 99999. Confirm entry with Confirm icon. The controller returns to the section view.
• Select the field “Tolerance band max” and enter the desired upper tolerance band value. Setting
range:
-99999 to 99999. Confirm entry with Confirm icon. The controller returns to the section view.
If one of the actual values (temperature and/or humidity) is outside the program tolerance range the whole program course is interrupted. During this program interruption time the controller equilibrates to the set-points of the current section.
The screen header indicates “Program pause (tolerance band)”. The program runtime indication flashes and does not proceed any further.
When the temperature or humidity values are back within the entered program tolerance range, the pro­gram continues automatically.

9.7.6 Repeating one or several sections within a time program

You can repeat several subsequent sections together. It is not possible to define the start section the same time also as the target section, therefore you cannot repeat a single individual section.
Enter the desired number of repetitions in the field „Number of repetitions“ and the number of the section to start the repetition cycle with in the field “Start section for repetition” To have sections repeated infinite­ly, enter the number of repetitions as “-1”.
The selected sections are repeated as many times as selected. Then the program continues.

Notifications are indicated by information icons displayed in the screen header in Normal display An information icon serves as an indication of a certain condition. If this condition persists, in some cases an alarm will be triggered after a fix or configurable interval. As
long as the condition persists, the information icon therefore continues to be displayed also in state of alarm. If during alarm the conditions ends, e.g., if during a tolerance range alarm the actual value returns to within the tolerance range, the information icon disappears, whereas the alarm will continue until man­ual acknowledgement.
Press the flash icon next to the information icon to access the corresponding text information.
Condition
The controller is in Idle mode (chap. 5.4). The current actual temperature value is out-
side the tolerance range (chap. 11.4) The current actual humidity value is outside

12. Temperature safety devices

12.1 Over temperature protective device (class 1)

The cabinet is equipped with an internal temperature safety device, class 1 acc. to DIN 12880:2007. It serves to protect the cabinet and prevents dangerous conditions caused by major defects.
• Cabinet without lights: limit temperature approx. 110 °C / 230 °F
• Cabinet with lights: limit temperature approx. 90 °C / 194 °F
If this limit temperature is reached, the over temperature protective device permanently turns off the cabi­net. The user cannot restart it. The protective cut-off device is located internally. Only a service specialist can replace it. Therefore, please contact an authorized service provider or your local Datacolor service representative.

12.2 Overtemperature safety controller class 3.1

The cabinets are regularly equipped with an electronic overtemperature safety controller (temperature safety device class 3.1 according to DIN 12880:2007). The safety controller is functionally and electrically independent of the temperature control system. If an error occurs, it performs a regulatory function.
The overtemperature safety controller serves to protect the cabinet, its environment and the contents from exceeding the maximum permissible temperature. In the case of an error, it limits the temperature inside the cabinet to the entered safety controller set-point. This condition (state of alarm) is indicated visually and additionally with an audible alert if the buzzer is enabled (chap. 11.5). The alarm persists until the cabinet cools down below the configured safety controller setpoint.
Check the setting regularly and adjust it following changes of the set-point or charge.
The safety controller only activates after the set-point has been reached once.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 77/126
Page 78
• In the field “Mode” select the desired setting

12.2.1 Safety controller modes

You can select between “Limit (absolute)” and “Offset (relative)” safety controller mode
• Limit: Absolute maximum permitted temperature value
This setting offers high safety as a defined temperature limit will not be exceeded. It is important to adapt the safety controller set-point after each modification of the temperature set-point. Otherwise, the limit could be too high to ensure efficient protection, or, in the opposite case, it could prevent the controller from reaching an entered set-point outside the limit range.
• Offset: Maximum overtemperature above any active temperature set point. The maximum tempera-
ture changes internally and automatically with every set-point change. This setting is recommended for program operation. It is important to check the safety controller set-
point and safety controller mode occasionally, as it does not offer a fix, independent limit temperature value, which would never be exceeded.
Example: Desired temperature value: 21 °C, desired safety controller value: 25 °C. Possible settings for this example:
Temperature set point Safety controll er mode S afety controller set-point
21 °C
Limit (absolute) 25 °C Offset (relative) 4 °C

After completing the settings, press the Confirm icon to take over the entries and exit the menu, or press the Close icon to exit the menu without taking over the entries.

12.2.3 Message and measures in the state of alarm

The state of alarm is indicated visually in Normal display by the alarm message “Safety controller alarm” and the screen header flashing in red color. If the buzzer is enabled (chap. 11.5) there is an additional audible alert (chap. 11.2). The alarm remains active until it is acknowledged on the controller and the inner temperature falls below the set safety controller setpoint. Then the heati ng i s released again.

13. User management

13.1 Authorization levels and password protection

The available functions depend on the current authorization level “Master”, “Service”, “Admin” or “User”. The authorization levels are hierarchical: Every authorization includes all functions of the next l ower level.
“Master” authorization level
• Highest authorization level, only for developers
• Extensive authorization for controller operation and configuration, outputs/inputs, alarm settings, pa-
rameter sets and operating ring display
• All passwords can be changed in the “log out” submenu (chap. 13.3).
“Service” authorization level
• Authorization level only for Datacolor service
• Extensive authorization for controller operation and configuration, access to service data
• The passwords for “Service”, “Admin” and “User” authorization levels can be changed in the “log out”
submenu (chap. 13.3).
“Admin” authorization level
• Expert authorization level, for the administrator
• Authorization for controller configuration and network settings and for operating those controller func-
tions required for operating the cabinet. Restricted access to service data.
• Password (factory setting): “2”.
• The passwords for “Admin” and “User” authorization levels can be changed in the “log out” submenu
(chap. 13.3).
“User” authorization level
• Standard authorization level for the cabinet operator
• Authorization for operating the controller functions required for operating the cabinet.
• No authorization for controller configuration and network settings. The “Settings” and “Service” sub-
menus of the main menu are not available.
• Password (factory setting): “1”
• The password for the “User” authorization level can be changed in the “log out” submenu (chap. 13.3).
As soon as a password has been assigned for an authorization level, the access to this level and the related controller functions are only available after log-in with the appropriate password.
If for an authorization level no password is assigned, the related controller functions of this level are available for every user without login.
If passwords have been assigned for all authorization levels, access to the controller functions is locked without login.
Datacolor CONDITIONER™ (MB2) 06/2017 page 80/126
Page 81
Operation after user login
At user login, the authorization level is selected and confirmed by entering the respective pass­word.
Following user login, controller operation is avail­able, recognizable by the open-lock icon in the header. The available controller functions corre­spond to the user’s authorization level.
Example: cabinet without lights
Password protection activated for all levels: operation without user login is locked
If passwords have been assigned for all authoriza­tion levels, the controller is locked without registra­tion of a user.
As long as no user is registered, controller opera­tion is locked, recognizable at the closed-lock icon in the header. This requires that the user manage­ment has been activated by the assignment of passwords for the individual authorization levels.
Example: cabinet without lights
Password protection for at least one level deactivated: operation without user login is possible
If passwords have not been assigned for all author­ization levels, after turning on the cabinet there are those controller functions available, which corre­spond to the highest authorization level without password protection.
No lock icon is shown in the display header. User login is neither required nor possible. To activate the password protection and user login,
perform new password assignment (chap. 13.5.3).
Example: cabinet without lights

To check the authorization level of the user currently logged-in, select in Normal display the arrow far right in the display header.
The information window shows date and time, the controller’s free memory space and under “Authoriza­tion” the authorization level of the current user.
If passwords have been assigned for all authorization levels, a user without login (password entry) has no authorization. There are only viewing functions available.
Display when all authorization levels are password pro­tected and no user has logged in:
No authorization level is displayed.
If passwords have been assigned only for some of the authorization levels, a user without login (pass­word entry) has access to the functions of the highest authorization level without password protection.
Display when only some of the authorization levels are password protected (example: no protection for the “User” and “Admin” levels) and no user has logged in:
The user’s effective authorization (due to lack of pass­word protection) is shown.
Example: user with “Admin” authorization.
If passwords have been assigned for some or all of the authorization levels, user login (password entry) provides the authorization for the corresponding password-protected level.
Display when at least some of the authorization levels are password protected and a user has logged in.
The user’s authorization (by password entry) is shown. Example: user with “Admin” authorization.

13.5.3 New password assignment for “service” or “admin” authorization level when the
password function was deactivated
If the password protection for an authorization level has been deactivated, i.e., no password is assigned, no login for this level is possible. Therefore access to this authorization level is available without login.
If the password for the “Service” or “Admin” authorization has been deleted (chap. 13.5.2), a new pass­word can be assigned for the current level and the next lower level(s) without user login.
Example: The password for the “Admin” authorization level was deleted, therefore every user without login has full access to the functions of the “Admin” authorization level. If access to this level shall be­come password protected again, the user can assign a new password for the “Admin” authorization level with the “Password” function.
