1. Functional Limit Level (Operation Level) Various types of machine operations are controlled by each functional limit level. This functional limit level will limit some operation and it has the purpose to protect designs from taking out unnecessarily or prevent incorrect parameter setting. Operation Level 1 is set at shipment. To change the operation level, input of the password is necessary. For details, please consult the distributor. 2. Cancellation of Functional Limit Level If the functional limit level is cancelled, all functions can be used temporarily. When you cancel the functional limit level, input a password on the screen of "2 Functional Limit Level" in page P8. (→p.178) For details, please consult the distributor.
