Program Protection Section 6-7
Write-protection
Using Passwords
The program (or selected tasks) can also be write-protected if the write pro-
tection option is selected from the CX-Programmer when a password is being
registered for the entire program or those selected tasks. The write protection
setting can prevent unauthorized or accidental overwriting of the program.
Note 1. If the selected tasks are write-protected by selecting this option when reg-
istering a password, only the tasks (program) that are password-protected
will be protected from overwriting. It will still be possible to overwrite other
tasks with operations such as online editing and task downloading.
2. All tasks (programs) can be overwritten when program read protection is
not enabled.
