Dear Sirs, I'm using WinCC Flexible to configure an OP177B but I am having difficult to work with the passwords. I created the group users and the users as shown in the files attached. Iset the Function key <F5> to activate another screen, but this action must be protected by a password (monitor, for example). I have tested this application yesterday and theauthorizations levels was right, it worked fine with the configurated passwords. But today I tryed access the same screen, pressing the F5 key in OP177B. I typed the user and passwordin sothe Log On screen,but the access was not allowed. I'm sure theuser and passwords are correct.I can only access the screen using the administrator password. What is the problem ? Am I doing a mistake in configurations ? Please I need help urgently. Thanks ! AttachmentWinCCFlexible.zip (181 Downloads) |

Dear Wizard, Thank you for your help one more time and now it's clear for me, but I would like to know if is not possible to disable this function (Ifthe user enters an incorrect password three times in succession, that user is entered in the "Unauthorized" group in the user administration) or maybe set more attempts ? I could not find where to set it in WinnCC Flexible. Best regards, Survive |

Dear Survive, It depends on your version of WinCC flexible. When you have WinCC flexible 2004, 2005 or 2007, you can not change it. But when you have WinCC flexible 2008, you can make some changes, see also this link: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/29735640 Expanded user administration. Best regards, Wizard |
