Password protection

You can protect the access to the setup functions with a
password. This makes the access to the disabled func-
tions only possible after entering a password (see Sec-
tion Function lockout, page 5-8).
To activate the password protection, you have to set a
password. After saving the password, it is only possible
to switch to the EXPERT mode after entering the pass-
word.

word is lost, you have to reset the instrument

set), page 3-12).
