Hello We use to protect our files from GT Designer3 with a username and password. So, I can only open the project if I know the user and password. Very handy. I found that function not in GX Works 3. The field "User management" in "project" menu is disabled (grey). So, I surely miss something.  Can somebody help? The manual only tells about Block and CPU security.  Thanks!  

Hello everyone, we have a problem with a connection of a Schneider HMI and a Schmersal Security PLC, do anyone have some experience in that? it's about addressing, it's unable to map address from Schmersal PLC to Schneider HIM the address of the I/O channels in the network ? What should I do?

I've added users in CX-Supervisor Developer, built and copied the SR3 file over but the new users don't travel with it. (I didn't think they should be embedded in the project file.) How do I transfer the user accounts from Developer to Runtime?

Hello everybody, I have network from : PC - 192.168.3.11 PLC - 192.168.3.250 I change this option in FX5U PLC in GX Works3 for Network Ethernet port --> Application Setting -> Security -Disable Direct connect with MELSOFT : Enable/disable -DO not respond CPU module search : Respond / not respond and I upload program to PLC. After upload program to PLC and restart it was impossible to connect again. I Have ping between PLC and PC, but could't write program. Always writes me Error <ES:0180840b> So to disable Security Option you should to do : 1. Open Works3 2. New Project (Choose your PLC - FX5U) 3. Online menu 4. Specify Destination Communication 5. Click twice in PLC module 6. Set Connect via hub (In my case i connect PC and PLC directly !) 7. Choose IP Address ( in my project : 192.168.3.250 , PC must be in same network 192.168.3.X) 8. Give OK 9. Connect Test. With steps I disable security options and it was enable to connect to PLC and Write data on it. I Hope that will help to other with same problem.

Hello! I am programming with FT view studio version 8. In the program, when I make numeric display, I can not input values for this tag I am using in the display. Then I decided to make 'invisible button' for enabling the input for this tag which is shown in the numeric display. This is okey for me, only if there is other ways to do this please tell me. Now when I have created this numeric display with input enabling -'group', I have a problem, how can I use security levels for this group, so that only logging in values can be set? I have found that there is security code selection for this in the screen displays, but not for the buttons.

Hello! I'm working on a project. I cannot get online with the PLC. The compagnie who made the program does not exist anymore so they cannot help me. Does anyone knows how to unlock a locked controller ? Do you know a compagnie who can solve this kind of problem ? Otherwise my only option is to wipe the all thing and reprogram it .... which would be bad. Thanks !

Hi everyone, I want to develop a logic for security alert system. I have to generate an alarm at irregular time intervals. No one should know the time interval. PLC has to give a digital output at any time. How to create this logic? Regards Joshua

Hi all, First post: I just want to know if there's a way to edit/change the users (security) in factorytalk view studio (using version 7.00.00 CPR 9 SR 6) Because we use different terminals some of the users are on some but not on others and there are instances of duplication with differing passwords as well as redundant users, I want to standardise all of them on each laptop, I cant however see how to modify or delete any. Do I need to restore the directory or something? I couldn't find what I specifically wanted in the search Thanks in advance for any help, Laure
