Fellow phone folk,

I'm in the process of restoring a couple of old 3M/Dynatel 965TD test sets, one of which will likely go to the local telephone museum. I've discovered, much to my disgust, that some of the configuration parameters are password-locked.

I've tried speaking to 3M about it, but I couldn't find anyone who would give me anything other than the metaphorical blank stare.

So: Has anyone ever figured out if there's a standard password? Or perhaps some way to reset the thing back to factory default?

Private messages are fine if this is knowledge that should not be allowed to escape to the wild. In other words, I'll keep what I find out in confidence if asked to.

Thanks much.
