PASSWORD LOCKS
The Lock function allows the user to lock various setups and or functions to prevent unauthorized changing or
erasing of scale functions, features and statistical data. For security a lock password (1-14 characters) is used. Once
the MSI 9750A is locked the message “LOCKED” will appear whenever a locked function is tried. To temporarily
unlock a function, press any locked key, press ENTER , then enter the password followed by the ENTER key.
To lock or unlock all functions you must use the “PASSWORD LOCKS” menu.

SETUP
To enter the Password Locks Menu press SETUP then [ 4] .
[1] Change Password – Used to change the password. Pressing
[1] brings up a text entry screen. Use the ALPHA key and the
keypad to input any password. Passwords are case sensitive,
so pay attention to upper and lower case characters.
[2] Status – Pressing the [2] key changes the status from
“LOCKED” to “UNLOCKED” to “LOCK ON PWR”. The
“LOCK ON PWR” mode leaves the 9750A unlocked until the
power has been cycled. This allows the primary operator to
complete all setups without having to enter the password over
and over. When completely fi nished with setups, cycle the
power and then the lock will be in effect.
Do not forget your password. The only way to unlock a
locked system without the proper password is to do a
complete reset (RESET ALL), which will cause you to lose
all setups. Make a note of it in a secure location.
[3] Lock Mode – Press the [3] key to select features and functions
for password protection. There are 3 submenu select screens. Use
the [7] key to scroll through all lockable items. Press the number
key beside each item to select it for locking. For example, to
lock out the Setup key press [3] . The arrow will appear indicat-
ing the Setup Key will lock. After selecting all the lock items,
press SETUP to return to the “PASSWORD LOCKS” menu.
Tip: Use “Lock All” to lock every lockable feature. Then unlock any features you wish to remain
operational. Remember to look at all three screens using the 7 key. The CLR key will unlock all
functions while in the Lock Mode menu.
If you forgot your password
MSI provides a master unlock that will erase all operator setups and
require you to completely start from scratch. This procedure will not
erase calibration, which is stored in the CellScale, not the 9750A.
However, all display modes, text strings, system settings, etc., stored
in the 9750A, will be lost.
!
[3] Date Mode – Pressing [3] changes the date mode from MM/DD/YY to DD-MM-YY.
[4] Time Mode – Press [4] to change between 24 hour time or 12 hour time with AM/PM indication.
[5] Daylite (sic) Saving – Press [5] to select the Daylight Saving mode. Select “ON” when in Daylight Savings
Time (adds 1 hour). Select “OFF” when not in Daylight Savings time. Select “AUTO” to allow the 9750A
to automatically enter into and out of daylight savings time (follows US rules). Set the daylight saving
mode before setting the date and time.
