To Unsecure the Power Supply for Calibration
The power supply can use a calibration security code to prevent unauthorized 
or accidental calibration. This procedure shows you how to unsecure the 
power supply for calibration from the front panel.
1 Turn on the front-panel calibration mode. 
Turn on the calibration mode by holding down   (Calibrate) key as you 
turn on the power supply and hold down the key until you hear a long beep.
If the power supply is secured, you will see the above message from the front 
panel for approximately one second. The ‘‘CAL MODE’’ message is then 
displayed on the front panel.
2 Move to the security code by pressing   (Secure) key.
3 Enter the security code using the knob and resolution selection keys.
The security code is set to ‘‘HP003633’’* or ‘‘HP003634’’** when the power 
supply is shipped from the factory. The security code is stored in non-volatile 
memory and does not change when the power has been off or after a remote 
interface reset.
• To enter the security code from the front panel, enter only the last six 
digits.
•  To enter the security code from the remote interface, you may enter up to 
12 characters.
Use the resolution selection keys to move left or right between digits. Use the 
knob to change the digits. Notice that the security code may be different if the 
security code has been changed from the default setting.
