3.3.4 Responding to the Prompt KEY?
When the password prompt KEY? appears, it indicates a password was set with an external device (e.g.,
Hand-Held Configurer, PC, etc.). The password can not be set via the front panel keys. A password key is
a maximum of 10 numeric characters (numbers 0-9 only). It does not impede display functions in EMODE
but must be unlocked to perform configuration functions.
✎ Notes A password key is NOT SET FOR NEW INSTRUMENTS from the
factory; therefore, if it is set, it had to have been done locally. The
password must first be obtained from the originator before the
procedure in
Table 3-5 can be used to access the EMODE
configuration function capabilities.
