Regardless of which keypad is being used (local keypad or remote HIM), the PowerFlex 4/40 does not support password protection. The drives do have a program lock function. To enable this, set parameter A101 [Program Lock] to a 1 (“Locked”). This will lock out anyone from changing a parameter. To remove the program lock, set A101 back to a 0 (“Unlocked”).
