For BG-10 instruction manual the password PW does not seem to work now. Anyone know what password works? Or an alternate site for the pdf?

Pentax does still work:

Not sure if this is just a typo.... but the password is not PW, it is Pentax with a capital P.

Remote F, and G work fine
Also the "universal remotes" that have pentax mode

The Remote F works without problems for each one of my MZ-S's. I have several bodies.

I got the manual from one of the links suggested above. Thanks anyway, though!

Thanks everyone, I have the pdf of the manual now. I was wondering about the wireless remote control function of the battery grip, as described on pages 9 and 10 of the manual. There is no reference to a model number or part number for the remote controller. Was the remote controller included originally along with the grip? Mine didn't come with one. How can I find a remote controller that works with the grip?

Remote control E or F worked fine with that gen of cameras.
Any remote that says "For Pentax" will work
