For enhanced security, users can erase the PLC program and change the password by accessing the 'Tools' menu and selecting 'Erase PLC program'. This feature allows for a fresh start or the creation of a new password for the device. Instructions for downloading the PLC program onto a wiped Pluto device are provided for easy setup. Take advantage of this tool to keep your system secure and up-to-date.

Despite following the exact steps, the password prompt continues to appear, requiring a password to complete the action.

If you're looking for answers, it's best to reach out to the manufacturer and inquire directly. Warm regards,

I recently received a message from Jokab, and I wanted to share it with you. I hope they don't mind me spreading the word.

A big thank you to RussB for saving me valuable time today! Your assistance was truly invaluable.

I've had this issue myself with Jokab Pluto PLCs! Unfortunately, there's not an easy way to recover the password once forgotten. But if you're willing to lose all the existing data, you should be able to restore the PLC to its factory settings by performing a hard reset. Do remember though, this method should only be used as a last resort because it's going to wipe out everything. Once you've done the reset, you can download a new program into the device. And moving forward, consider using a password manager tool to avoid situations like this in the future. Best of luck.
