User password

To delete a user password, execute TSETUP, then:

1. Press the

2. Enter the currently registered password. The character string you

enter is displayed as a string of asterisks.

Password = ****

If you press

before entering the password,

will

appear on the display.

3. Press

Enter

. If the character string you enter matches the registered

password, the password option is reset and the display changes to:

Not Registered

If they do not match, the following message appears along with a
beep indicating you must repeat step 2.

If you enter the password incorrectly three times, the screen will display:

Access denied!!

You will not be able to access the password item in the TSETUP menu. In
this case you must turn the power off and back on to retry the
procedure.

4. Follow the same procedures described in the earlier section, How to

set the password, to set a new user password.

After you register or delete a user password, if you press the reset switch
before turning off the power, your latest user password setting will be
cancelled.
