3.5.12 CPU Failure Burnout Direction and
Hardware Write Protect
There are two slide switches on the CPU assembly
board. One sets the burnout direction at CPU

which disables parameter changes through
the use of a handheld terminal or some other
communication method.

3.5.13 Software Write Protect
EJX configured data is saved by using a write
protect function. The write protect status is set to
“Yes” when 8 alphanumeric characters are entered
in the
New password field and transferred to the
transmitter. When write protect is set to “Yes,” the
transmitter does not accept parameter changes.
When the same eight alphanumeric string entered
in the
New password field is also entered in the
Enable wrt 10min field and transferred to the
transmitter, it will be possible to change transmitter
parameters during a 10 minute period.
To change the transmitter from the write protect
“Yes” status back to Write protect “No” status, use
Enable wrt 10min to first release the write protect
function and then enter eight spaces in the
New
password field.
The software write protection does not affect the
function of external zero adjustment screw.
To disable the external zero adjustment screw,
select Disabled in the Ext SW field before activating
the software write protection. Refer to subsection
3.5.11.
