User Accounts

[jie en]

Hi, I would like to know how can I add/delete a user account in NA-HMI by using the HMI program and not from the security setting. 
Something like the images below.

You'll need to script it using the following 3 commands:

            _Hmi_s_AddUser(NewUserName, NewUserRole, NewUserPassword, NewUserComment)
            'There is a slight mishap in AddUser which does not call the save. ModifyUser saves the selections to memory.
             _Hmi_s_ModifyUser(NewUserName, NewUserName,NewUserRole, NewUserPassword, NewUserComment)
            _Hmi_s_DeleteUser(NewUserName)

Thanks photovoltaic,
 But how do I get the user and role from the vb code?

To get the users and Roles make 2 String arrays - I called them RegisteredUserNames and RegisteredUserRoles

To populate them with the registered users and roles use:

RegisteredUserNames = System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray(_HMI_s_Users())

RegisteredUserRoles = System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray(_Hmi_s_Roles())

Thanks photovoltaic,
Any way for me to export the all this to a SD card and import it? because when I download in the new program i need to key in all the user again.

Sure - if you want to script that you could - but the easiest way is to simply first transfer the users only from the HMI before you send the project to the HMI. This will add the users to your project. The User Data should show up red when Sysmac detects a mismatch (see picture). Make sure you only select the user data for obvious reasons..

I should add - alternatively if you uncheck the User Data when you transfer to the HMI it will leave the new users untouched. I recommend option 1 though so you have a backup of the new users.

Is there a list of “_hmi_s_” functions?

[IO_Rack]

The list can be found in the NA Series Programmable Terminal Software User's Manual in the Sysmac Studio > Manual > NA Series directory on your PC. Section 4 under System - defined Variables.

Thank you IO_Rack for the suggestion.
I checked the functions " _Hmi_s_AddUser" "_Hmi_s_ModifyUser" "_Hmi_s_DeleteUser" but
there are not in the Omron system manuals.
They are also not shown through autocompilation within the scripts.
These are very interesting functions, and I was wondering if there were any others?

I'm sure there are, but there's no available list of them unfortunately.
