Unlocking the Meter
If the meter is password protected, the correct
password must be entered in order to make changes
to the parameter settings.
Entering the correct four-digit number sets the
password to 0000, disabling the protection.
Changes to the programmed parameter settings are
allowed only with the password set to 0000.

displays

returns to Run Mode. To try again, press
Enter/Ack
while the
Locked
message is displayed.

The password may be disabled by the following
procedure:
1.
Note display reading prior to pressing the Menu
button. Ignore decimal point and sign.
2.
Access the
Password
menu, add 2 to the noted
reading and enter that number as the password
(e.g. display reading = -1.23, password = 0125).
