User Memory Limit allows you to set the maximum amount of
application memory the file can occupy. With the standard amount of
application memory in the terminal (64K) you can choose whether or not
to retain the Alarm Status Screen data (the alarm count and accumulated
time in-alarm) in battery-backed memory. By choosing not to retain this
data in battery-backed memory, you increase the amount of memory
available to applications you have developed. To extend the amount of
memory even further, use the optional user EEPROM for extra application
memory. Then you can choose one of the 128K memory options.
IMPORTANT: A User EEPROM must be installed in the terminal to
supply the extra memory. When the EEPROM is used for extended
application memory, it can’t be used to back up the application file.

The default is 62,976 Alarm Status Screen NOT Data Battery-Backed. The
setting you choose is saved in the application file.
IMPORTANT: Your application file size must be in the same range as the
terminal’s memory configuration. If your file will fit into the lower
memory setting (59,904 or 62,976), choose one of these options.
If you select either of the higher options (124,928 or 128,000), the
following message will be displayed:
