    Is that lock/unlock funtion meaning (1) to unlock, (0) to lock again. I know you have to shut machine off to read change but want to lock it back out after making change.

    PWE = Parameter Write Enable

    1 = Enable
    0 = Disable

    Late model Fanucs like 18i, 21i, will alert you as to what parameter changes require power shut down and reboot. In fact, these parameter addresses will not allow you to do anything else until you power off and reboot.
