Recover from a Lost
Password If the controller is secured with a password and the password has been lost, then it
becomes impossible to access the controller using the Connected Components
Workbench software.
To recover, the controller must be set to Program Mode using the keyswitch for
Micro830 and Micro850 controllers, or the 2080-LCD for Micro810 controllers.
Then, ControlFlash can be used to update the controller firmware, which also
clears the controller memory.
IMPORTANT After creating or changing the controller password, you need to power
down the controller in order for the password to be saved.
ATTENTION: The project in the controller will be lost but a new project
can be downloaded.
