Steven,
If you go into FieldPoint Explorer, right click on a comm resource (assuming that it is ethernet) and choose Edit This Comm Resource and then click on the browse button, it launches a utilty called Remote System Explorer. In the Remote System Explorer window, you see the list of all ethernet FieldPoint devices. For any devices that support security (FP-1600 modules that have firmware 411 or later and all FP-20XX modules), you will be able to select the device, right click on choose Lock/Unlock Device. The password configured with this step also carries over into the FTP server, serving to restrict write permissions. However, because FTP is used for certain software abilities (determining firmware revision), read permissions are always enabled and can n
ot be disabled.
