9 – SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
The BaseStation 3200 has a number of features that enable you to manage the controller. You can set up
passcodes to grant various levels of remote access to the controller. You can back up your system with a USB drive,
and then you can use those backup files to restore your system if it ever goes down. You can also ensure that your
controller has the most current software code with a download from the Baseline web site.
Setting Up a Passcode
If you plan to use BaseManager central control with your BaseStation 3200, we recommend that you set up a
passcode that functions like a password or PIN to grant access to the controller.
Note: If you are using the controller in a standalone manner and no one will access it remotely, there is no need to
set up the passcodes.
There are two levels of access:
Read Only – Allows the user to view the settings, but not make changes
Read/Write – Allows the user to view the settings and make changes
1. Turn the dial to the AUX position.
2. Press the NEXT button to move to the Passcodes option, and then
press the ENTR button. The Passcode screen displays.
3. Press the + button to toggle between Read/Write and Read Only in the
first field.
4. When the access level that you want to configure displays, press the
NEXT button to move to the first field of the passcode.
5. Press the + or – button to change the numbers and form your own
unique passcode.
6. Repeat steps 3 – 5 to set up the passcode for the other access level.
Note: Be sure to remember which passcode is associated with which access level so you are certain to give the
correct code to the correct users.
7. When you have finished making changes, return the dial to the Auto Run position.
Changing the Serial Number of Your Controller
The System option under the AUX dial position allows you to change the serial
number of your controller. It also provides a set of system functions that you
should only perform under direction from Baseline Support.
WARNING! Only change the serial number of your controller when directed
to do so by Baseline Support. If you change the serial number, you will disable
your ability to restore your system from a previous backup.
