Another useful user interface control is the BatchSecurity control. This control allows the user application access to the AVEVA Batch Management security system so that applications and functions can be secured. You can extend the AVEVA Batch Management security system to include your own custom applications and functions.
For more information about configuring AVEVA Batch Management security, see "Security System.".
You must first add the ActiveX controls to the WindowMaker environment by selecting Wizard/ActiveX Configuration from the Configure tree node or from the menu system under Special\Configure. This action opens the Wizard/ActiveX Installation dialog box. Select the Wonderware BatchSecurity Class and click Install.

Clicking the Wizards icon from the InTouch toolbar accesses the installed ActiveX controls.

To Insert a Control into an Application
-
Click the BatchSec icon.
-
Click OK.
-
Select the desired window in the InTouch application.
-
Click to drop the control onto the window.
The BatchSecurity control is not visible at run time, but it is best to keep it out of the way of other controls in the application by placing it in a remote corner.
Note: It is very important that the BatchSecurity control be available to the application at all times. Therefore, it is best to locate it on a window that never gets closed, such as a header window.
