Prevent Access to TP programs

If you set a section of the control code mask in the program's header to a one, your program will be invisible. I've got more details on the control code here.

You can also configure the password levels to allow or disallow just about anything. The HandlingTool manual has details about how to write the XML file in the Password section.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- Password configuration file -->
<PASSWORD>


	<!-- Define Level Names -->
	<LEVEL level="0" name="OPERATOR"/>


	<!-- Default Menu Type. Full = 0, Quick = 1, HMI Full = 2, HMI Quick = 3-->
	<DEFMENU level="0" type="1"/>

	<!-- Define Default Screen for Login-->
	<DEFSCREEN level="0" sp_id="18" scrn_id="1"/>

	<!-- Define which screens Operator level is allowed to access/edit-->
	<SCREEN level="0" sp_id="64" scrn_id="1" access="0" rw_access="0"/> <!--EDIT_EDIT-->
	<SCREEN level="0" sp_id="71" scrn_id="1" access="0" rw_access="0"/> <!--SELECT_SELECT-->

If you put this into an XML file, create the install user, log in, and NEXT to the second page of Function Keys, you will see an option called Config. Select it, then import, then Enter on the XML file. When it says it has been loaded, then Done. Now the operator level will not be able to view or edit any programs.

Before hand, go to the File page and set the USB device with the XML file to be the current device.
