Protect the Safety Signature in Run Mode

You can help prevent the safety signature from being deleted while the controller is in Remote Run mode, regardless of whether the safety application is locked or unlocked.
IMPORTANT:
You must complete these steps before you create a safety signature or safety-lock the controller. Once a safety signature exists, or the application is safety-locked, the Protect Signature in Run Mode checkbox is not editable.
With
Studio 5000 Logix Designer®
 software, version 38 and later, if no signature exists and the Protect Signature in Run Mode box is checked, the user will still be able to generate a new signature while in Remote Run or Test mode. Once created, the new signature will not be able to be deleted while the checkbox is checked and the controller is in Run Mode.
Follow these steps to protect the safety signature.
  1. Open the Controller Properties dialog box.
  2. Click the Safety tab.
  3. Check Protect Signature in Run Mode, and click OK.
