Password Protection; Change Password Screen; Enter Password Screen - SABINE Power-Q Operating Information Manual

To access the PASSWORD controls, press #11 (PASSWORD) from the POWER-Q MAIN MENU.
The following window will appear:
Security password protection will prevent unauthorized (or well-intentioned but unsophisticated)
users from tampering with your POWER-Q setup.
To change your personal security password from its default value "off," turn the data wheel clock-
wise one click. A five-digit number code will appear, initially set to 10000. The left/right arrow keys
will move the cursor to any of the five digits, and the data wheel will change the value. Note that
the changing values above or below zero increments or decrements all digits to the left of the
cursor correspondingly. For example, moving the cursor to the far right digit of password 10000
and rotating the data wheel one click counterclockwise will change the password to 9999.
Once you have created the password you want, press ENTER, and the POWER-Q will remember
your password and return to MAIN MENU. You may then proceed with normal POWER-Q opera-
tion.
When the POWER-Q is switched off and turned back on, the following window will appear:
To enter your password, turn the data wheel clockwise. The five-digit code (10000) will appear,
and you must enter your password using the left/right arrow keys and data wheel. When you have
scrolled to the correct password, hit ENTER. The POWER-Q will display the main menu.
Until the correct password is given, the POWER-Q front panel buttons will remain inoperative (with
the exception of the HELP button). The POWER-Q will continue to operate and process audio
using the parameters that were programmed in when the POWER-Q was turned off. You will be
unable to change any of the settings until you enter the correct password.
If you forget your password, you may always gain access to the POWER-Q controls by entering
the secret user back-door password 13829. (Information about the secret SABINE handshake and
decoder ring will also be delivered to your door by masked courier.)
