 security provides the ability to control access to the runtime application by controlling access to:
  • The HMI device
  • Individual screens, shortcuts, and popups
  • Graphic elements
  • Downloads to the HMI device
Security is project-specific, not application-wide, and applies only to user (role) runtime access.
Use the
Security Administration
 dialog box to set up access rights for anyone interacting with the HMI device.
