An Eurotherm product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 14, 2008

Advanced security feature prevents the unauthorised cloning of control configurations to protect OEM intellectual property rights.

Eurotherm now offers an advanced security feature on its 3500 and Mini 8 controllers that prevents the unauthorised cloning of control configurations to protect the intellectual property rights of their original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers and value added distributors.

OEM security has successfully protected the 2600 and 2700 series of Eurotherm controllers for several years but there are still a lot of unprotected units in operation that are vulnerable to cloning.

Security is more important than ever, as customers demand solutions that are efficient, reliable and risk-free.

Integrated solutions, like OEM security from Eurotherm, are optimised to block any attempts at cloning or otherwise interfere with system configurations; it also increases the value-added of products and services.

OEM security is activated using a simple procedure using Eurotherm iTools software package.

Once the feature has been installed users simply need to enter an OEM Security Password to access iTools configuration and monitoring software.

The common communications registers are still available for Scada and PLC systems to read and write data while the controllers are in run-time mode.

Customers can purchase the OEM security by requesting the option at time of order.
