HMI Users View
IDE & HMI Users – What’s the difference?
Before we start, it is important to understand the difference between IDE Users and HMI Users in HELIO. Let's have a look at their differences:
| IDE Users | HMI Users | |
|---|---|---|
Who? | You and your team will using their | Once your HMI is deployed to the actual machine, the operators in the
factory will sign in as |
When? | While you are developing & engineering the HMI. | Once your HMI is deployed to the actual machine and running inside the factory. |
Where? | Use the IDE User Manager to define and configure IDE Users. | Use the HMI Users View of the Project Editor to define and configure Initial HMI Users & Roles for your project. |
Limitations |
| HMI users are only used for signing into an HMI. They can NOT be used to sign into the HELIO IDE. |
About
Use the HMI Users View to configure the initial HMI Users and Roles
for your project. Roles allow you to control and limit access to specific
pages or page sections within your HMI.
»Initial« HMI Users!
This view defines Initial Users and Roles for your HMI. They will be available
after the deployment of a project to a
HELIO Runtime.
However, once this database has been initialized these Initial Users are
no longer in control of the
Project Editor. For example administrators might
delete or edit HMI Users. Any changes made in the runtime database will
not be reflected in the Initial Users list.
