Forgetting your unlock code is common, and there are solutions to get your device working again.
Most Phothera devices use the factory default code: "0007", if that doesn’t work, try the second default code of “0205”.
Unlock steps:
For DT Controllers (100, 100XL, 200, 200XL, 400, 600):
- Press any button - display shows "C0dE"
- Press LEFT ARROW to display 00 00
- Enter unlock code using UP ARROW button (usually "0007")
- Use LEFT/RIGHT ARROWS to move between digits
- Press PLAY/PAUSE when the code is correct
- Success = screen shows "00:00"
For ClearLink Controllers (200, 400, 600, 600-3D):
- Tap blank screen - Phothera logo appears
- Tap logo - lock screen with keypad appears
- Enter unlock code using number keypad (usually "0007")
- Press Enter key (arrow pointing right)
- Success = main menu appears
If the unlock doesn't work:
- Try default code "0007" or "0205" one more time
- Check for the orange label on the device with the correct code
- Look in the documentation for the written codes
- If device is still locked, use this FORM to contact Phothera's service and select the following options: Patient > Current patient > My device is locked...
