Password Handling

The passwords can only be changed using SetPointPS software
connected to the local RS-232 port on the relay.
It is possible to restore the password(s) in case the password is lost or
forgotten. In order to restore the password(s), a relay program is
needed. The serial port settings are 38400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity
and one stop bit. The bit rate is configurable via the front panel.
Command

will be valid for the next two weeks only for this specific device.

Now the passwords are restored to the default values (See section
"Operating Levels").
