NOTE
Entering a password
1 A password must consist of no more than eight or
sixteen alphanumeric characters. (The maximum
length of characters is different in dependence on
the PMC model.)
2 Passwords are not case-sensitive. (A lower-case
letter is regarded as an upper-case letter.)
3 A space, kana character, kanji character, and
special character (for example, *, #, and @ )
cannot be used.
4 There are combinations of characters, which
cannot be used in some rare cases.(An error
message appears.) In this case, enter another
string.
5.4.1 Partial Protect Functions
This subsection describes the partial protect function.
Using a special password to permit display and editing enables the
subprogram area to be divided into a protection area and
non-protection area, as well as enabling a ladder program to be
partially protected. An object code with a special password is created
in the same way as an object code with a normal password, except for
using the special password to permit display and editing.
• Special password
A special password begins with #.
(Except for its beginning with #, a special password is no
different from a normal password.)
The setting way has a difference by PMC model.
