Signing on using the connected experience

When using AVEVA Operations Control and the connected experience, you may need to log in with your user name and password during several operations when using either the development features of Application Server, such as the IDE, or its runtime applications.

When using the connected experience, the user name you log in with must be a valid AVEVA Connect account name.

The Login window

When you need to log in, Application Server opens a browser window. Depending on an option chosen when configuring Operations Control, this may be a window in your system default browser, or it may be a pop-up dialog displayed by an embedded browser provided with Application Server. In either case, it will prompt you for your user name, then your password.

When you need to log in

In some cases, such as when you start the Application Server IDE or when you open an OMI ViewApp, you only need to log in the first time you open one of these applications. When you then open a second application, or re-open an application you've closed, Application Server uses Single Sign-on (SSO) to automatically sign you back in. However, after a long enough period of inactivity, SSO times out and you will need to log in again.

Other features require you to log in every time you use them. These are generally features which require you to log in whether or not you are using the connected experience. They include secured writes, verified writes, and acknowledging alarm states.
