Project Properties

Project properties include:

To access program properties

  1. Display project properties by selecting Properties from the Project menu. The project Properties box opens.

  2. Select property topics by clicking the tabs.

General

When you select General, the fields are blank. You enter all of the project information manually. An example is shown below.

Password

You can apply password protection to your program. This will prevent anyone who does not have the password from uploading the program from the PLC.

Note

Security restriction: if a PLC operator enters a wrong password 3 times, the PLC automatically disables program upload for that program.

History

When you first open History, the field is blank. Enter the desired text as shown below.

Statistics

When you open Statistics, the progress bars show how much of the project's available space is in use. The statistics update automatically.

Set Logo Pic

You can also import your company's logo into your project. Then, when you print sections of your project, the logo will be printed at the top of each page.

Block PC Access (Jazz20 ONLY)

You can assign a password that prevents any communication channel from being opened to the PLC. If you enable this feature and assign a password to the channel, any attempt to communicate with the PLC will result in a request to enter a password.

From the time that the password is entered, communications must be established within the time set in the parameter Communications Timeout, or the password must be re-entered.

Note that communications may be established without password via the application containing the password that was downloaded to the PLC.

 You must record the password. If the password is lost, you will have no way to access the controller.

Other Communication Applications (Remote Access)

In order to access the PLC's communication channel via other applications, such as Remote Access, you must activate the Enter Password request window by running JZ20_Communication_password.exe contained in:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Unitronics

or
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Unitronics

Double-click JZ20_Communication_password.exe.exe, and enter the password. Note that you must establish communications within the time set in the parameter Communications Timeout.
