PLC_007_BOND Posted August 17, 2012 Report Posted August 17, 2012 hello all can anybody guide about how to get current user name in GT Designer 3 software? Thanks in advance Quote
JRoss Posted August 17, 2012 Report Posted August 17, 2012 Security in the GOT series is very basic, only a password, no user name. If you want security with a user name, you will have to program it with the PLC. Quote
PLC_007_BOND Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Posted August 17, 2012 hi ross In GT Designer 3 they have mentioned that for GT16 HMI we can set opeartor name & password with Extended function OS. DO you any idea about it? Please let me know if u hv done this in GT 16 Quote
Crossbow Posted August 17, 2012 Report Posted August 17, 2012 GT15 and GT16 support a feature called Operator Authentication, where the usernames and passwords are set on the GOT, with each user being assigned a security level. The objects on the screen can be assigned view and operate security levels. GOT900 series did not have these features. It's an OS component you will configure in system settings and then install during the download. Quote

Crossbow Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Can't set users on PC, must be done on terminal when using operator authentication. These security methods are explained in the GOT1000 Screen Design Manual (Fundamentals). Quote
