Generally this is the same issue as if you had forgotten a password on a normal computer - think of an RT PXI(e) Controller like a laptop.  How would you recover the password from a laptop/PC?  You need to clear the CMOS of the controller.

 

Look on page 2-16 of your PXI-8110 user manual, or you can look at the electronic version here:  https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/372655d/resource/372655d.pdf

 

Page 2-16 shows you the button on the motherboard of the controller that is used to clear the battery-backed CMOS memory.  This doesn't affect installed software, only the settings within the controller's BIOS.
