Bios Password:
Level 3 Password – Allows all Password Level 1 & 2 access plus allows the user to load a new BIOS and
Change Can Bus settings.
Range: 16 Characters.
NOTE: If passwords are used, a Password Level of 0 in the Program Loader Monitor (i.e. no password entered
or incorrect password) will not allow access to any changes to settings for the system.
3.9 DVC Program Loader Monitor Password Implementation
The password scheme is implemented to protect customers from software vandalism or unskilled users. First,
the passwords are defined using the Programming Tool and are downloaded into the DVC710 when the project
files are loaded. Next, the Program Loader Monitor asks you to enter a password for the level of access you
wish to have for the run time environment. The Program Loader Monitor has 3 levels of password protection.
The level of the password entered in the Program Loader Monitor determines your access and ability to issue
commands. The three levels are 1: Send Changes, 2: Load Applications, 3: Load BIOS. Higher numeric levels
include all of the abilities of the lower levels. If no password is entered when the Program Loader Monitor is run
then default access is given to the user to view the status of the DVC710’s, factory information, EE memory
(non-volatile memory where program variables can be stored in the event of power failure) and DVC expansion
modules. However, if all password fields are left blank in the Programming Tool, level 2 access is given by the
Program Loader Monitor as a default.
3.10 Process Update Time
The Process Update Time is the amount of time that the application code will take to execute one logic cycle
(Always Code, Logic bubble Code, Transition Code and update the I/O).
Range: 1mS to 20mS
3.11 Programming Tool Debug Feature
When using the Programming tool, selecting anywhere on
the blank space of the main window and typing “debug” will
provide the user with a new pull down menu on the title bar
with the heading Debug. After compiling an application, the
programming tool will produce several more files that may
be accessed through this pull down menu. The application
may not be edited through these files but they can be a
useful tool in troubleshooting an application. The extended
files are listed below.
• PROGRAM_NAME.HDR
• PROGRAM_NAME.ASM
• PROGRAM_NAME.MAP
• PROGRAM_NAME.OBJ
Intella Programming Tool Debug Feature
• PROGRAM_NAME.SRC
File Types Created by the Intella 700 Programming Tool
The Following are a definition or explanation of the file types created by the Intella 700 Programming tool for
both normal and debugging operations.
DVC file - .DVC (Normal File Set)
The .DVC file is the application itself un-compiled in standard text. This is the file that the compiler uses to store
bubble code in.
