the form of pr otection can only be changed during offline pr ogramming.
• Fixed and SLC 5/01 pr ocessors — output files ar e always statically pr otected
and all other files ar e unpr otected.
• SLC 5/02 pr ocessors — at the time you save your pr ogram you can statically
pr otect output files, all files, or no files.

constant pr otection for data table files on a per file basis.
