After logging off the current user, from the File menu, you can click Log On to log on a
different user.
Logging on to a FactoryTalk View SE Client
Following installation of the FactoryTalk View SE software, the All Users account is
automatically added to the Runtime Security list and allowed all run-time security codes.
This gives any FactoryTalk View SE Client user permission to run a client, open displays,
write to tags, and execute commands and macros.
In a secured FactoryTalk system, you must remove the All Users account, add users to the
Runtime Security list, and then give the users the security permissions needed to run an
application. For more information, see page 5-14, page 5-11, and page 5-35, respectively.
Logging on when the client starts up
If single sign-on is enabled, when the FactoryTalk View SE Client starts up, the client will
attempt to log on the current FactoryTalk Directory user.
If there is no user logged on to the FactoryTalk Directory, the client will attempt to log on
the current Windows user if that user is set up as a FactoryTalk Windows-linked user.
If the Windows-linked user is not authorized to run the application, you will be asked
whether another user would like to log on. To open the FactoryTalk View SE Client Login
dialog box (shown in the following illustration), click Retry.
To force all users to log on when a FactoryTalk View SE Client starts up, you can disable
single sign-on. For details, see the FactoryTalk Security Help.
Changing the current user while the client is running
To allow users to log on to a FactoryTalk View SE Client at run time, provide them with a
way to run the Login (or Logout) command.
If single sign-on is enabled, changing the FactoryTalk View Studio user does not change the
FactoryTalk Directory user. To change the current directory user, you must use the Log On to
FactoryTalk tool. For details, see “Logging on to the FactoryTalk Directory” on page 5-4.
