How To Reset The Dt2000 - Kingston Technology DataTraveler 2000 User Manual

12. How to Reset the DT2000

In the event the User PIN has been forgotten, or if the user wants to delete all data stored on
the DT2000, please follow the instructions below.
The reset process will clear all cryptographic parameters, including the User PIN. This means
the DT2000 will revert back to the default User PIN set as11223344 - see section 4 on page 6
on how to change the User PIN. Also, since this will force the creation of a new encryption key,
the DT2000 will have to be reformatted (see section 13 or 14).
Caution: Resetting the DT2000 will delete all data stored on the drive.
