An AVEVA Instrumentation administrator can set security rights for users to enable/disable access to AVEVA Instrumentation functionality including:
-
Access to AVEVA Instrumentation application modules - you can be restricted from using any module (license).
-
Access to AVEVA Instrumentation objects can be restricted to read-only (for example, you cannot add/edit a cable) or no access (that is, the user cannot view a cable).
AVEVA Instrumentation objects include project entities such as cables, equipment and catalogs, and the importing of data.
By default, all new projects have the Security Rights features disabled for backward compatibility with earlier versions of AVEVA Instrumentation. If security is required it must be turned on using the AVEVA Instrumentation Security Manager. Users must then be allocated to 'Security Groups' such as Engineers and Designers, and Read-Only Users. For further information, refer to the AVEVA Instrumentation Security Manager User Guide.
