6.5.1 Overriding a password

If you cannot remember a controller’s password, you can bypass it via hardware
override. To override the password on a controller:

1. Power off the affected controller.

2. Change the controller’s Modbus address to “98,” using the rotary switches

located on the controller’s motherboard.

3. Power on the controller.

4. Launch PCM, attach the controller, and clear the password.

5. Power off the controller.

6. Change the Modbus address back to its original setting.

7. Power on the controller.

For more information on accessing the Pointe Controller rotary switches, see
“Hardware Reset” on page 230.
