How to configure a device step by step
Once the General Options have been defined, we will configure the basic characteristics of each Terminal. In [Click to configure] select [Devices].
Follow these steps for each Terminal to be configured (3 terminals = 3 configurations):
Step 1. Configuration for each device
- Name: write the name or the identifier of the Terminal to be configured, previously defined in General Options.
- Area & processes: each device can have a series of areas and processes visible, to limit these permissions, write in the field the areas and processes that you want to be displayed, separated by commas (e.g: Area: L1,L2,L3. Process: B902,A101.)
- Log out: to prevent a user from using another user's session, you can set an inactivity time, in minutes, after which the session will automatically close.
- Resize: press
and indicate the default size of the Terminal window in [Resize]. Normally we will use Max for the plant terminals.
NOTE: this is the common configuration, the rest of fields are generally defined by default, for more information, please go to: Configuration devices.
Step 2. Save changes
- Press
to insert the configuration of the device in the table. Repeat this action for each available device or terminal.
- Press
to make all the changes effective.
