Omron FQM1-MMA21 User Manual

This section describes the following operation settings at startup and mainte-
nance functions.

• Operating mode at startup

• Program protection

• Remote programming and monitoring

• Flash  memory

The operating mode when the power is turned ON can be specified in the
System Setup.

The operating mode at startup for Motion Control Modules will be the same as
that for the Coordinator Module when in Sync Mode, but will be RUN mode
when in ASync Mode.

The FQM1 provides the following kinds of protection for user programs.

Read and display access to the user program area can be blocked from the
CX-Programmer. Protecting the program will prevent unauthorized copying of
the program and loss of intellectual property.

A password is set for program protection from the CX-Programmer and read
access is prevented to the whole program.

(1) If you forget the password, the program in the FQM1 cannot be trans-

ferred to the computer.

(2) If you forget the password, programs can be transferred from the comput-

er to the FQM1. Programs can be transferred from the computer to the
FQM1 even if the password protection has not been released.
