Allen-Bradley 1756-L61 User Manual page 63

During runtime, we recommend that you place the controller mode switch in
IMPORTANT
RUN mode and remove the key (if applicable) from the switch. This can help
discourage unauthorized access to the controller or potential tampering with
the program of the controller, configuration, or device firmware. Place the
mode switch in REM or PROG mode during controller commissioning and
maintenance and whenever temporary access is necessary to change the
program, configuration, or firmware of the product.
The mode switch on the front of the controller can be used to change the
controller to one of these modes:
• Run (RUN)
• Remote (REM)
• Program (PROG)
