9.2.17 User view
9.2.17.1 Description
Purpose
The user view is used by the administrator to manage user accounts, group assignments
and user passwords.
Users can change their passwords and logoff times.
Layout
The user view contains four columns: user, password, group and logoff time. The passwords
are encrypted by means of asterisks.
• The users in the "Administrators" group can view all existing users in the user view,
change all entries and create new user accounts.
• Other users only see a single line in the user view showing their own user name.
If the name or password of a logged on user is entered, a system alarm is output.
Export and import
A user view contains all users, passwords, group assignments and logoff times set up on the
HMI device. To avoid having to reenter all the data on another HMI device, you can export
the user view and import it to another device. However, this is only possible if this function
has been configured.
Note
Do not export the password list immediately after changing it. Exit the "User view" object
after making changes and wait until the changes have been written to the internal Flash
memory before performing the export.
Notice
The currently valid passwords are overwritten during an import. The imported passwords are
valid immediately.
