Saved users

Hi everyone,

I have question about WinCC Professional V13 and Simatic IPC477D panel.

When I update the new code from TIA PORTAL to the IPC panel, I lose all the users (username, password..) So, I'd like to know where does WinCC Professional store the users in the panel, or if It'd be posible to do something to don't lose that information.

thank you, reggards

You can't deselect "override user" in transfer - setting window?

Hi dabopa,

when you update your runtime project on your IPC477D, then you overwrite all users that may exist on the runtime project of your IPC.

To avoid loosing the users every time you update the runtime project, you may either create the users in your engineering project, or you may export the existing users of your runtime project and import them after the update again.

More details about this topic can be found in the WinCC Professional V13 manual at
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/92323076
in chapter 10.7.4.5 "Administering users in Runtime" at page 4411 and 4412.

You may also consider to look at the specialized forum talk for WinCC (TIA Portal) at https://support.industry.siemens.com/tf/ww/en/threads/261/?page=0&pageSize=10.
