Disable Security for Screen Changes

Post by thebigdbpsu »

I have a few screens and a "Motor Stop" button on a screen that I would like to be able to be accessed regardless of whether someone is logged in or not. Is it possible to somehow disable security for certain actions such as "Next Screen" and such?

You always have to enable security on a screen component. By default it is accessible to everyone. Which means that someone must have enable security on the "Next screen" button you are using. If you right click on the component, you can change the security settings.

Mark:

Would it be possible to script an auto-login to a basic account (e.g. Operator) when the system boots?

You can look at this post and it has an example project on how to script your own security dialog box. That has code that would allow you to create an auto-login via script.
