"The EPBS will compare the system security code with the code entered on the
E-Configurator. If the code matches, you will have an opportunity to change
the code. Press NO to continue on without any change. Press YES if you want to
change to a new security code at this time. Entering a new code uses the same
technique just described, using the Left/Right and Down keys. It is necessary
to use a security code different from the default AAAA. Failure to change the
code will cause a periodic message to play – “CHANGE PASSWORD”."

- moltke 5y ago> just decline to operate at all until the password is set? This truly is the right way to handle PSK auth. The "UX" for it isn't as nice as some people would like though.
- bombcar 5y agoI took it as that was what it was doing. It refuses to do crosswalky things until you set the password (likely a power failure or something caused it to lose it’s config). The troll thing to do is set a password if you find one of them in the wild.
