10. How to determine the DT2000 version number

Instructions
1. Unlock the DT2000 with the User PIN
2. Enable Options by pressing the KEY
button 3 times (triple-click)

Caution: If you enter an incorrect User PIN 10 (ten) consecutive times, the DT2000's
brute force mechanism will trigger and the User PIN, the encryption key and all data will
be deleted and lost forever.
PIN used to unlock DT2000
User PIN
If you enter an incorrect PIN 10 (ten) consecutive times, the encryption key and all data will be
deleted and lost forever. The DT2000 will then revert to the factory default User PIN of
11223344 - 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).
Unlike other similar drives, the DT2000 incorporates a random number generator. Once the
drive is reset, a new encryption key is randomly generated.
