Options / Protected mode
Protected mode is special mode of program. When program is in Protected mode, there are
disabled certain program operation and commands that can modify buffer or device settings.
Protected mode is used for prevent operator from modify buffer or device settings due to
insignificance. Protected mode is suitable for the programming of a large amount of the same
type of devices.
Protected mode function is available independently in single programming control software
PG4UW and in multiprogramming control software
PG4UWMC .
Protected mode in PG4UW
There are two ways how to switch program to Protected mode:
1. by using menu command Options / Protected mode . This command displays password
dialog. User has to enter password twice to confirm the password is correct. After
password confirmation program switches to Protected mode. The entered password is
then used to switch off Protected mode.
2. by reading project, that was previously saved in Protected mode. For details see File /
Save project .
Checkbox Keep "Load project" operation allowed is set to inactive state by default - it
means the Load project operation button and menu will be disabled when Protected mode is
active.
If the option is enabled (checked), the Load project operation button and menu will be allowed
in Protected mode.
Checkbox Disable view/edit buffer is set to inactive state by default - it means the View/Edit
buffer button and menu will be enabled when Protected mode is active. This allows you and
others to view content of buffer, but not edit (due to active Protected mode).
Activate this option, if you wish to disable also viewing of buffer content in Protected mode. In
this case, we recommend that you activate also option Encrypt project file (with password).
For details see File / Save project.
Select operation mode for protected mode
Options "Multi operation" mode - represents basic form of protected mode, where all
available device operations (blank, verify, program, erase) are enabled, except read. This
provides certainty, that operator cannot modify buffer data by accidental or intentional read
operation. It's useful when you want to have all supported device operations enabled in one
project (multi-project).
Options "One operation" mode - represents enhanced form of protected mode , where
only one operation from all available is enabled . Provides better certainty, because
prevents operator from executing wrong type of device operation.
By building more projects saved in "One operation" mode using Multi-project Wizard you
can put together also non-standard flow of device operations of control SW (e.g. P
Verify). Please, see examples of use and differences between operation
modes.
