PURPOSE: To prevent the destruction of stored contents due to a program runaway and change system data from a remote place, by outputting an input key code to a specified output port as it is and providing a means which releases memory protection only when this code coincides with a fixed key code.
CONSTITUTION: Normally, the write from a CPU (a) to an RAM (f) is inhibited by a protector (d), and the RAM (f) is in a memory protection state. In case that system data in the RAM (f) is changed or new system data is set, a command to release the memory protection is inputted from a typewriter (c) to the CPU (a) through a typewriter interface (b). The CPU (a) outputs the key code included in this command to the protector (d) as it is (without processing it). The protector (d) latches the key code and compares it with the fixed key code from a fixed key code setting means (e); and when they coincide with each other, the write suppression of the write control line of the RAM (f) is released.
