Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project with a Siemens HMI (Tia Portal V15) and seeking advice on user interface design, particularly for administrator session management.

Objective:I aim to create a homepage with a "Log in" button that allows the administrator to access several pages (Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, Page 4). Each of these pages would have a "Log out" button that leads back to the homepage. Additionally, I want the session to automatically close after 5 minutes of inactivity.

Specific Challenges:

1. "Log in" Button Design: How can I design this button so that it acts as a gateway to the other pages, starting with Page 1?
2. "Log out" Button Design: How can this button be designed to consistently return to the homepage?
3. Automatic Logout Management: How to make an automatic logout after 5 minutes of inactivity?

I have already set up an "admin" user who can freely supervise and operate, provided that the username and password are correct, but once the data is filled in, I always stay on the home page.

I would greatly appreciate any help or example you could share, especially regarding how to manage transitions between pages and sessions securely and efficiently.

Thank you in advance for your time and expertise!
