Protecting presets from being overwritten
You can protect any rows in the preset table from being overwritten
with the
LOCKED
column. The write-protected rows are color-
highlighted in the preset table.
If you want to overwrite a write-protected row with a manual
probing cycle, confirm with
OK
and enter the password (where
password-protected).
NOTICE
Caution: Data may be lost!
Rows that were locked with the
LOCK / UNLOCK PASSWORD
function can be unlocked only with the selected password.
Forgotten passwords cannot be reset. This means that locked
rows would be locked permanently. The preset table would thus
no longer be fully usable.
Prefer the alternative function
LOCK / UNLOCK
