Security
To avoid unauthorized use of the instrument, you can activate a PIN code.
PIN code
The PIN code is a four-digit code where each digit can be set between 0 to 9, e.g., “1234”. The PIN code can be activated and changed by the user in the field software. Please refer to the field software documentation for more information.
The default PIN code is “0000”. With this code set, the security is not activated and you are not prompted to enter the PIN code at start up.
NOTE – If the wrong code is entered more than 10 times, the instrument will be locked and the PUK code needs to be entered.
PUK code
The Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) code is a ten-digit code where each digit is set between 0 to 9, e.g., “0123456789”. If an incorrect PIN code has been entered 10 times, enter the PUK code to unlock the instrument.
The PUK code is set at the factory and cannot be changed. The PUK code is available in the field software before the PIN code is set. Please make a note of the PUK code and save it in a safe place.
NOTE – If the PUK code has been lost, please contact your authorized Trimble distributor to retrieve the PUK code.
