9.2.2 PLC Protection (Password Protection)
You can set a new password with up to 8 characters, or change an existing one.
To access a PLC for which a password has been set, a login is required whenever the power
is turned on.
To set a password, you can use:
• the programming tool
• the SYS1 instruction
!
• Be sure to memorize your password. Without the password, you
will not be able to read programs on password-protected PLCs.
• If you have forgotten your password, our support team will not be
able to reset it for you.
• If you are not logged in, [Clear Password] will erase not only the
password but also the program and parameters stored in the
PLC's comment memory.
REFERENCE
For details on the SYS1 instruction, please refer to your Programming Manual
or to the FPWIN Pro online help.
