Temperature controllers: How to Return to Default settings

The ones of you who deal with Delta temperature controllers, sooner or later found on the situation to reset the Temperature controller to default values.

How to do that without using DTCOM?
Please follow the below instructions if you have a DTA or DTB
untitled
In case you have DTD4848 just change the keys [V] & [SET], for [] & [SET].

But what happen with DTC? This device have no buttons.
So If you change the Modus Address, and you do not remember what address you use… you´re in a trouble.

In this case, you have 2 options:
Or you use the LED code of the manual to guess the protocol and address
qqqqqqq

Or just follow the below instructions to take the DTC back to factory defaults:
1. Switch to “RUN, and Power on the device.

PLC Password: How to protect your program?

How to protect you program?

I’m pretty sure, that If you´re a programmer is not the first time you need to protect your work.
Maybe to avoid last time changes, or maybe because is your everyday bread.
So in any of the cases, we would like to explain what password locking possibilities new ISPSoft provide to you.

1st Program Lock
In this case, you lock the computer file, to open the file you need to have the pasword, but If the program in on the PLC customer can upload without password.


full screen is recommended

2nd Subroutine Lock
Your customer can open the program with no problem, but you can lock your Function Blocks to avoid anybody steal your Know-how.


full screen is recommended

3rd PLC Lock
In this case you’re locking the PLC, to be able to upload the program from the PLC you need the password.
The password resets if you come back to factory settings, but be aware that you´re going to lose the program also!


full screen is recommended

To all of you, who have a machine in you hands with a Password, and need to extract the program for whatever reason is. I’m afraid there´s no crack or universal password.
The only think you can do is contact with your machine provider.
Or just reset to factory settings, loosing the program on the process
