Introduction
Security information
1. With any network connection, security is a concern. The BL-PA100A provides
security to prevent unauthorized access to your network.
• Only terminals that are registered to the master adaptor can
communicate with the network.
• A terminal may be registered to the master only if the SETUP buttons
on the master and terminal are pressed within 5 seconds of each other.
2. Data sent and received over the PLC network employs AES 128-bit
encryption, however we cannot guarantee that data will not be intercepted by
a third party.
3. For security, we recommend resetting your adaptors (see page 12) in the
following situations.
• If for some reason you are concerned that another adaptor may have
been accidentally registered to your master (for example, the adaptor of
someone who lives in the same apartment building as you), reset each
of your adaptors and register them again.
• If you discard an adaptor, give an adaptor to someone else to use, or
have an adaptor serviced, reset the adaptor first.
• If you lose an adaptor, reset each of your adaptors and register them
again.
