Configuring Password Protection
In addition to the LOCK function, you can configure password protection for additional security.
With this feature, the LOCK function can be deactivated only by entering the password you configure.
The password is numeric and can have up to 6 digits. Use the
RS
keys to select the digits
(0 through 9) for your password. The password is hidden on the readout; only dashes (“------”) are
shown. The first dash flashes to prompt input. Press the
RS
keys as needed to select the desired
digit (0 to 9) and then press the
L
key [ENTER] key. The digit is stored and the second dash flashes
on the display. Repeat the input procedure as described for the first digit. To store a space as
a character in the password, press the
L
key [ENTER] while the corresponding dash is flashing.
Once all 6 characters have been stored, press the
L
key [ENTER] to store the password.
Note:
Keep a copy of your password in a safe place.
The LOCK function can be deactivated only with this password.

Changing the Password
To define a new password, the existing password must be entered first in the SETUP menu under
“PASSWORD.” “PW.OLD” prompts this input. Once the old password is entered, the “PW.NEW”
prompt is shown automatically. Enter the new password or press
L
at each position to enter spaces.
The display shows spaces.
Note:
Entering 6 spaces deletes the password, which deactivates the password function.
