Configuring source protection in the Logix Designer application Chapter 4
This example shows the Add-On Instruction, MyValveAOI, viewed from a
system that has the source key used to secure the instruction.
Tip: For source-protected export options, see the Logix5000 Controllers
Import/Export Reference Manual , publication 1756-RM084 .
Source-protected content cannot be copied from version 19 of
RSLogix 5000 software and pasted into earlier software versions. The pasting function is disabled in
previous software versions when source-protected content is placed on the clipboard.
When the source key is available, the component behaves the same as if it were not
source protected. To verify source protection, you must disable or remove the
source keys.
Important: Disabling source protection using the RS5KSrcPT.exe tool does not remove
the sk.dat file.
You can disable the source protection in two ways:
• Specify a path to a different sk.dat file.
• Use the Clear button on the Source Protection Configuration dialog box.
• Use the Disable Ability to Configure Source Protection button on the
Source Protection Configuration dialog box.
Specifying the path to a different sk.dat file
To specify a path to a different sk.dat file, follow these steps.
