Chapter 5. Password Protection and DataGuard

Overview

The Sievers 500 RL On-Line TOC Analyzer includes Password Protection using one user name and password for
all users. You can activate or deactivate this feature, as needed. Using Password security, there are two options
for Menu Lockout (On and Off) that define when a user must enter the user name and password.
Turn the Menu Lockout option to On to restrict access to the Main Menu, and therefore all menus, without first
entering the user name and password. The user can then access all menus, run and stop analysis, and change
parameters on all screens—without having to re-enter the user name and password.
Turn the Menu Lockout option to Off, to automatically allow users access to screens that run and stop analysis,
or display sampling data, without the need to enter the user name and password. Users are ONLY required to
enter a user name and password in order to change parameters that affect calibration and analysis. To view
which menus and sub-menus require a password, see Figure 22: Menu Map — Menu Lockout Off (Requires
Calibration Passwords) on page 102.
The DataGuard security feature is also available as an optional upgrade from GE Analytical Instruments.
DataGuard allows the use of up to 100 unique user IDs, which you can configure for different levels of user
access to various menu items and settings. The feature supports 21 CFR Part 11 by maintaining an audit trail of
all user operations. The minimum User Level required to access each of the menu screens is listed in Figure 22:
Menu Map — Menu Lockout Off (Requires Calibration Passwords) on page 102.
Note:
Regardless of which type of security you use with your Analyzer, all security-related
settings are configured on the
