TD 200 Parameters and Messages
Password Protection Bit 3
Setting bit 3 in byte 0 of the format word (see Figure D-16) enables you to require that a
password be entered before allowing a variable to be edited from the TD 200. This password
(a four-digit integer from 0000 to 9999) is stored in bytes 10 and 11 of the parameter block.

Edit-Allowed Bit 4
Figure D-17 shows the edit-allowed bit that is used by the TD 200 to determine whether or
not you can edit a data value. If the edit-allowed bit is set, the TD 200 sets the
edit-notification bit (bit 2 in byte 0 of the format word) after you have edited the data value.
