Hello,

I am trying to use an I/O Field element in Input/Output mode to display and operator input signal, in this case a date.

I have mode set to input/output and display format set to date. For some reason, after restarting or reconfiguring the PLC, on the first input by the operator it displays an incorrect value but subsequent inputs are fine.

For example, if i were to add this I/O Field element to an HMI screen in the PLC, run SiVArc, etc. when the operator goes to put a value inthe first time, lets say 12/31/2022, when they hit enter instead of the I/O field displaying 12/31/2022 as expected, it instead displays something like 02/24/2032 (always same amount of months/days/years difference on this 1st input) but then subsequent inputs will display fine.

Also, wondering if it is possible to add a feature so that only when certain operators log in first are they able to change the date.

Thank you!
