Question moved from Leica Cameras to Leica Geosystems.
Leica Total Stations are leased. If you don't pay the monthly fee, Leica lock it with a PUK Code. That forces you to contact them and sort out the problem.
The other scenario is that you 'found it' on a building site and 'borrowed' it. The owner contacted Leica and said " I lost my Total Station" so Leica locked it.
The ONLY way to lock it is by calling Leica. It is locked with an unbreakable 18 digit 128 bit encrypted password / PUK Code.

Question moved to Leica from Cellphones.
The Leica Total Station is on Lease. and if you don't pay the monthly fee, they lock it on you with a PUK Lock. Only Leica can unlock it. There is no other way, no magic codes, no way to work it out from the serial number. They use an RSA 128 bit encrypted password of about 12 to 16 letters and numbers.
I wrote this article for Cellphones, but the Leica is the same
