EEPROM Lock (E2P.L)
The programmed settings of the controller are stored
in two types of hardware memory, short-term use
RAM and long-term and secure EEPROM.
Very rarely, it is necessary for an application to write
new settings by serial communications so often to the
controller that it risks reaching the maximum number
or read/write operations of EEPROM hardware.
To prevent this, when the EEPROM Lock is ON, all
data written by serial communications will be stored in
RAM only and will not be stored in EEPROM. Only
the Parameter Lock (LOCK) and the EEPROM Lock
(E2P.L) will be stored in EEPROM.
As a result of turning on the EEPROM Lock, when a
power cycle occurs on the controller, all settings and
data received by serial communications will be lost.
