6.1 Security function (CopyProtect)

The secuirty function provides copy protection for circuit

programs on memory cartridges or combined memory/

battery cartridges.

Unprotected memory cartridges

You can edit circuit programs without restrictions and

exchange data between the memory cartridge or combined

memory/battery cartridge and the device.

Protected memory cartridges

A circuit program is protected when it is transferred from a

protected program memory cartridge or combined memory/

battery cartridge to IDEC SmartRelay.
To execute this circuit program in IDEC SmartRelay, the

protected cartridge must remain inserted during RUN; that

is, the circuit program stored on the cartridge cannot be

copied to other IDEC SmartRelay devices.
Over and above that, a protected circuit program is write-

protected.
A circuit program with password protection is no longer

protected after the correct password has been entered; that

is, you can then edit the program and remove the memory

cartridge or combined memory/battery cartridge.

Note

When you create the circuit program for a memory cartridge or

combined memory/battery cartridge, you need to assign a

password to be able to edit it at a later time (see Chapter 3.6.5).
