Software Lock Mode
The software lock function keeps personnel from accidentally changing parameters in
the inverter memory. The feature has some options, but the software lock function (B21)
is not protected from operator editing. You can lock all other parameters except the
output frequency (F01), if desired. This allows the user to vary only the output
frequency.
NOTE: Since the software lock function B31 is always accessible, this feature is not the
same as password protection used in other industrial control devices.
NOTE: If redundant data protection is necessary, use one of the intelligent input
terminals (1 to 5) to allow a data change only when SFT is Off.
