Work with Credential Manager

The Credential Manager allows you to store your credentials in a secure location. You can use the stored credentials for authenticating access to other components in WindowMaker, WindowViewer, and Alarm utilities.

Note: For of multi-node connections, the credentials should be added from where end user is requesting the connection (that is, the local node). The credentials are configured and stored in Intouch HMI.
