Change the Admin/Calibration Password
The password must be numeric, and can be up to 15 digits in length.
After it has been changed, you can only enter the calibration mode by
providing the correct password.
If the password is lost or forgotten, access can be restored by setting
an internal switch that resets the password to zero (refer to
“Accessing the Calibration switch” in chapter 4). Once you have set
the password to zero with the switch, you can enter a new password
using the Admin menu or using the CAL:PASS command. The new
password will become active when you log out of the Admin Menu or
send CAL STAT OFF. After you have returned the switches to the
normal position, you can access the Admin menu with the new
password.
