(8) Remote password check
(a) How to unlock the remote password
• When the Q series C24 has been set as a module subject to the remote password check with the QCPU
parameter, a remote password unlock processing must be performed from the external device after line
connection before starting data communication.
• The unlock processing for the QCPU remote password is performed as follows:
• When communicating using MC protocol
Perform the unlock processing from the external device using dedicated commands.
• When accessing the programmable controller from GX Developer
Perform the unlock processing on the GX Developer screen when access begins.
(b) When the remote password unlock processing is completed abnormally
• Repeat the unlock processing after checking the remote password set in the QCPU.
• Start with the line connect processing again if the Q series C24 line connect signal (X12) turns OFF due to
the unlock processing abnormal completion.
• The user should clear the accumulated count stored in the following buffer memory before repeating the line
connect processing if the Q series C24 CHn side ERR occurrence signal (XE/XF) turns ON and the ERR
LED lights up due to the unlock processing abnormal completion.
(Applicable buffer memory)
Storage area for accumulated count of unlock process abnormal completion accumulated: Address 8756
(22FCH)
(How to clear) Cleared by the user using one of the following:
• Set the accumulated count to "0" using the GX Configurator-SC modem function monitor/test screen.
• Write "0" to the applicable area of the buffer memory.
