Disable write-protection on the transmitter
configuration
ProLink III
Overview
If the transmitter is write-protected, the configuration is locked and you must unlock it
before you can change any configuration parameters. By default, the transmitter is not
write-protected.
Tip
Write-protecting the transmitter prevents accidental changes to configuration. It does not prevent
normal operational use. You can always disable write-protection, perform any required configuration
changes, then re-enable write-protection.
3.3
Restore the factory configuration
ProLink III
Overview
Restoring the factory configuration returns the transmitter to a known operational
configuration. This may be useful if you experience problems during configuration.
