Setting Security Options in Diamond

Prior to setting security options in Diamond, you must have installed the Encryption Control Pack. You must also
have selected an encrypted device in your project.

To Set Security Settings, do the following:

• Select the

Tools > Security Setting

option. The following dialog box appears:

• If desired, select
