9-2 5100 ES Model II/III Portable Radio Operating Manual December 2006
Password Description
1
With PCTune 1.1.1.0 or later, select Radio > Reset Passwords . Only password
information is erased.
2
With earlier versions of PCTune, after starting the PCTune program, press SHIFT
<
CTRL > E to toggle the following Erase EEPROM function (otherwise it is grayed and
not selectable). Then select Radio > Erase EEPROM > Params Only . All password
and personality information is erased, so the radio must be reprogrammed.
Note
Do not select “Complete” because that erases all information and the radio must then be
sent back to the factory to make it usable again.
9.1.2 Changing Password
An assigned password can be changed by the user if the “Set User Password” option
switch or menu parameter (5100 ES) is programmed. Selecting this function displays
prompts for entering and confirming a new password.
Note
With the 5100 ES portable, it is recommended that a number key not be used for this
function because the password mode is exited if that key is pressed to enter a number.
9.1.3 Password Entry Procedure
Whenever a password is requested, it is entered as follows:
With DTMF keypad models, enter each number using the keypad and press the < F2 >
(Enter) key after the last digit is entered. With limited keypad models, enter each
number by pressing the Up/Down switch and press the <
F2 > key after each digit.
9.2 Password Description
9.2.1 User (Power-On) Passwords
When a User Password is enabled, it must be entered each time radio power is turned on.
Up to four different User Passwords (User 1/User 2/User 3/User 4) can be programmed.
Currently, the same radio features are enabled for each. Entering any User Password at
power up enables normal radio operation.
