By responding to the Enter selection: message at the end of the main configuration menu with "5" (Password), you
can program the DS73 Password. The password is used for security purposes to prevent unauthorized users from

Current password: BTA
Enter Password (8 chars max):
Type the desired password up to eight ASCII characters. Press <ENTER> to return to the main configuration menu.
NOTE: The password is case sensitive. Any non-alphanumeric character including <BACKSPACE> and <DELETE>
or a password greater than eight characters is interpreted as an input error and you will be prompted to enter the
password again.
Terminate the password entry by typing the <ENTER> key. The DS73 will respond with:
Accept password as typed above? (Y/N) :
Press "Y" to accept the new password or "N" to reject it. If you press "N", the DS73 will return to the "Enter
Password" prompt. If you type "Y", the DS73 will return to the main configuration menu.
NOTE: It is not necessary to reset the unit for this option to take effect.
5.1.4 UNIT RESET
Users can instruct the DS-Serieswith the DS73 Ethernet module, to “reset” by using the Menu Selection Method to
reset the unit. Only a user connected to the peripheral module can issue the reset command. Users can also instruct
the DS-Seriesto reset by sending the ASCII string “$BTRESET” from the service port. The Unit Reset and
$BTRESET commands do not affect any saved configuration parameters that have been changed from the default
values.
Important: The Unit Reset command will terminate communications with connected equipment to the M-Series DAC.
You must re-establish communications with the DS-Seriessystem after the unit has been reset. The Unit Reset menu
selection is found in the DS73 Module Menu. This Menu is invoked by sending the Attention Character(default
;;;;;) to the DS73 peripheral module five times. The DS73 will respond with a menu similar to the following, if two
Serial I/O modules are installed.
