Well, there is no real *need* to use a "gadget" and to connect to the terminal commands, it depends on WHAT/HOW/WHO set the password.

You need to unlock exactly WHAT model?

Coming from WHAT? (I mean standard PC, X-box, etc.)?

Is security set to "high" (good) or "maximum" (bad)?

Usually googling gives some results:
