Coded store protection
Memory cards can have code protected locking applied to a portion of the store locations. This
locking prevents the state of write-protection from being changed.
This allows users not in possession of the code, to have access to data held in protected stores,
without being able to remove the protection. Only users in possession of the code can unlock the
protection and change the contents.
The same code is needed to adjust the portion of memory locations locked.
After formatting, the code number of a card is 0 (single zero).
Locking Stores
The portion of store locations which can have their protection locked is variable from 1 to 90
locations.
Locking is carried out from the MEMORY CARD FORMAT screen. The right-hand soft keys of
this screen include [Change Code] and [Lock Stores] keys.
