Managing Passwords
Managing Passwords
This section provides information on using the PASSWORD feature to manage
passwords that are required in order to access password-protected VCU param-
eter configurations.
This feature extends the following options:
• Enter Passwords (pg. 48)

• Set/Change Passwords (pg. 50)
• Backdoor Pwd (pg. 53)
Password Levels
Each parameter on the VCU can potentially be protected by more than one level.
The MBE 900/4000 On Highway Application determines the set protection levels
and prompts you to enter passwords accordingly.
Different levels of VCU software provide different levels of password protection,

as described in the following table:
VCU Software Protection Level Available

Level
12.xx and Below No password protection options available
13.xx and 14.19 Level 1 protection only / 1 password / All
parameters
14.20 and Higher Multiple levels as described in the table below.
TABLE 1 Password Management table
NOTE:
i Verify your VCU software level by accessing the Software ID parameter
from the Data List. Refer to page 22 for instructions.
The current levels and the parameters they are created to protect are listed in the

following table:
Protection Level Parameters Protected

Level 1 All VCU parameters
Level 2 Maintenance Alert / Optimized Idle parameters
Level 3 Low Gear Torque Limiting and Progressive Shift
Level 4 Limiters (Parameter Groups 3, 5, 6)
