This section contains information on how to select the protectable part
program directory. Use this directory to store part programs that you wish
to control access to. When part programs that have previously been
protected through encryption are downloaded to the control from ODS or
the Mini-DNC package, they are automatically stored in the protectable
part program directory.

Important: The

{CHANGE DIR}

softkey controls access to the protectable

part program directory. This softkey is password protected. You must
have the proper password to access this softkey.
