Model 2606B System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual
Set the instrument password
You can change the instrument password from the web interface. The instrument password is used
for access to the instrument from any remote interface. When password usage is enabled by the
localnode.passwordmode command, you must supply a password to change the configuration or
to control an instrument from a remote command interface.
When a password is set for the web interface and localnode.passwordmode is set to an option
that requires a password, you cannot make changes using the web interface options Virtual Front
Panel, Flash Upgrade, and TSB Embedded.
The default password is "" (no password).
You cannot retrieve a lost password from any command interface. You can reset the password from
the front panel. Select MENU, then RESET-PASSWORD.
For information on the TSP command, refer to
