To assign security to a graphic display

1. In the Graphics editor, right-click an empty area of the display, and then select

Display Settings.

2. In the General tab, select a security code.

To give every security code access to the display, select the asterisk (*). The * is
selected by default.

Provide a way for users to log in and log out

Use Login and Logout buttons to provide a way for users to log in and log out. Make sure
you place these buttons in graphic displays that all users have access to.

Log in

When the application starts, the DEFAULT user is logged in. If a macro is assigned to the
DEFAULT user, the macro runs.

For example, you could create a macro to set the remote display number to open a new
login display after the DEFAULT user logs in. For information about controlling display
changes remotely, see page 8-4. Remote display changes are not checked for security.
