Important: Data table file protection is available with any of the SLC 500

processors. However, the form of protection can only be
changed during offline programming.

Fixed and SLC 5/01 processors – output files are always
protected and all other files are unprotected from online
changes while the processor is in the Run mode.

SLC 5/02 processors – at the time you save your program
you can protect output files, all files, or no files from online
changes while the processor is in the Run mode.
