Applying and storing the current configuration:
See the respective buttons in the top bar of the dialog:

,

: The current User Management configuration

must be downloaded to the device to get it effective. The configuration currently
applied on the device can be uploaded into the configuration dialog.

,

: The current configuration can be stored in a

xml-file (*.dum) and re-loaded from this file, which is useful to set up the same user
configuration on multiple systems. The standard dialog for browsing in the file system
will be provided for this purpose. The file filter automatically is set to "*.dum", which
means "device user management" files.
The actual settings can also be documented as printed version by use of the command
"Print..." (File menu) or "Document..." (Project menu).

Access Rights
This dialog is provided on a tab of the Device dialog (Device Editor). It is part of the
"online user management" feature and serves to grant resp. deny the currently
defined user groups certain permissions, thus defining the users' access rights on files
or objects (like for example an application) on the PLC during runtime.
Notice that these permissions can only be assigned to groups, not to particular users.
For this reason a user must be defined as member of a group. The configuration of
users and groups is done in the Users and Groups tab of the device editor.
See for example in the following picture the permission to add and remove children
to/from the PlcLogic object granted for user group "main_control".
See in the following how to define the access permissions and how to get them loaded
to the device or stored in a reloadable file.

Defining the access permissions
To define the permission
for performing an action on one or multiple object(s), you
have to select the object entri(es) below the desired action type in the 'Actions'
window, then select the desired group in the 'Permissions' window, and then click on
the Grant or Deny button (also in the Permissions window).
See the instructions in the Howto window.
