There is a operational test procedure of VMO/MMO Over speed Warnings given below. All I could make out from it was it is overspeed warning threshold that is changed and not protection.
B. OVERSPEED Warning VMO/MMO 2 (L/G DOWN VMO/MMO SELECTION Switch 22FP at L/G DOWN)
ACTION RESULT
1.In the avionics compartment, on the panel 188VU:
. remove the lockwire from the safety cover of the L/G DOWN VMO/MMO SELECTION switch.
. set the switch to L/G DOWN.
2.In the cockpit on the overhead panel, on the ADIRS
CDU:
On the ADIRS CDU:
. push the ADR2 and ADR3 pushbutton switches. . the OFF legend of the ADR2 and ADR3 pushbutton
switches comes on.
3.On the MCDU: On the MCDU:
. push the line key adjacent to the ADR1 indication. . the ADR1 page comes into view.
. push the line key adjacent to the OUTPUT TESTS
indication.
. the ADR1 OUTPUT TESTS page comes into view.
. push the line key adjacent to the INTERFACE TEST
indication.
. the ADR1 INTERFACE TEST 1/2 page comes into
view.
. on the keyboard push the NEXT PAGE function key. . the ADR1 INTERFACE TEST 2/2 page comes into view.
. push the line key adjacent to the START TEST
indication.
(Ref. TASK 34-13-00-740-002-A).
From 0 to 10 seconds, ignore the warnings and indications.
From 10 seconds and more, on the CAPT(F/O) PFD, the speed increases to 367.7 Kts. When the value is 239Kts:
. on the upper ECAM display unit, this indication is
shown:
OVERSPEED VMO/MMO 235/.60
. on the panels 130VU and 131VU, the MASTER WARN lights flash.
. you can hear the continuous repetitive chime aural
warning.
. push the line key adjacent to the RETURN indication. The test procedure stops.
