Forgot Password 
 
If you forget your password, you can click 
on the ‘Forgot Password’ link that appears 
in the login window when DT4000_Launcher 
is executed (see 

.)   

 
This option will allow you to create a new 
password, but in order to protect the privacy 
of your data, the DT4000 will be formatted.  
This means that all of your data will be 
erased in the process.* 
 
When you do click on ‘Forgot Password’, a 
message box (

) will appear and 

ask if you want to enter a new password 
prior to executing the format.  At this point, 
you can either 1) click ‘OK’ to confirm or 2) 
click ‘Cancel’ to return to the login window. 

 

 

 
If you opt to continue, you will be prompted 
to create a new complex password and a 
new hint.  The hint is not a mandatory field, 
but it can be useful in providing a clue as to 
what the password is, should the password 
ever be forgotten. 
 
(Note: The hint CANNOT be an exact match 
to the DT4000 password.)
