• Hardware locked (priority 1)
The DIP switch for hardware locking is activated on the main electronics module. This
locks write access to the parameters.
• SIL locked (priority 2)
The SIL mode is activated. Writing access to the relevant parameters is denied.
• WHG locked (priority 3)
The WHG mode is activated. Writing access to the relevant parameters is denied.
• Temporarily locked (priority 4)
Write access to the parameters is temporarily locked on account of internal processes in
progress in the device (e.g. data upload/download, reset etc.). The parameters can be
modified as soon as the processes are complete.
On the display module, the -symbol appears in front of parameters that cannot be
modified since they are write-protected.
