PASSWord
Description
This command (no query form) enables the *PUD and NEWpass set
commands. Sending PASSWord without any arguments disables these
same commands. Once the password is successfully entered, the *PUD
and NEWpass commands are enabled until the instrument is powered
off, or until the FACtory command, the PASSWord command with no
arguments, or the *RST command is issued.
To change the password, you must first enter the valid password with
the PASSWord command and then change to your new password with
the NEWpass command. Remember that the password is case sensitive.
