Configuring PanelView Operator Terminals

Publication 2711E-821 – January 1998

If you choose No for Use Default Operation, initial values or initial
state values are written when run for the first time. Also, after a
power cycle, the initial value or initial states values are written.
When the terminal is switched from Run to Configure to Run mode,
nothing is written. The default is Yes for Use Default Operation.

Important:

In DH+/ControlNet, if you instruct the terminal to write
Initial Values, you could overwrite PLC addresses
already in use by other devices on the network. Also, it
can take a long time for the terminal to write all the
values.

Use the Security screen to assign up to 16 Operator Access Codes.
Once access codes are set, an operator must sign on using the
appropriate code to view screens that have security assigned. Screen
security is assigned in the Security Screen dialog in PanelBuilder.

Important:

Any security assigned to the application startup screen
or to a screen triggered by the PLC Controlled Screen
option, configured in PanelBuilder, is ignored.

To assign operator access codes:

1. In Terminal Configuration, press the Security button to display

the Security Access Code screen.

The select list displays the list of operators and any assigned
security codes.

2. Scroll through the list of operators using the Up and Down

arrows. Highlight the operator you want to assign a security code
to.
