Operate in Mixed mode

This section explains about the behavior of WindowMaker and WindowViewer if the security type is not compatible in Operations Control connected experience.

Start WindowMaker with incompatible security type:

1. Launch WindowMaker.

   If you are launching WindowMaker for the first time on this node and no other Operations Control product was launched and authenticated on the same node before, then you are prompted to authenticate with AVEVA Identity Manager on a web browser or embedded browser (based on the choice that you have made while configuring Authentication tab in System Management Server of the Configurator). If you have already launched and authenticated WindowMaker on this node or launched and authenticated any other Operations Control product on the same node before, then you will be authenticated using Single Sign-On. For more information refer to Authenticate using AVEVA Identity Manager section.
