Hey, that's a feature! ;) I just looked it up because I was curious, looks
like the password is a setting that you can turn on if you need to have the
iron locked to a set temperature for process control in a manufacturing
environment. If you don't care about it, it won't get in the way.

Changing temps is a little more involved with the digital version, like I
thought, but once you set up your presets (or just use the defaults) it
looks like it's reasonable to use.

Here's the manual, if anyone is curious (direct PDF link):
