IP address is checked to ensure it has a properly 
formatted IP address. If either IP address has an 
invalid IP address format, you will receive a 
warning message. You will need to correct the 
invalid format before continuing.

•  If you want to enable user logins, go section 
Adding a User Login below.

Adding a User Login 
When you create a user login, the CPU login request 
function is enabled. Users must log in to be able to 
read and write configuration data. 
To create a user login: 
1.  With EASY CPU started and a configuration file 
open, click Edit in the dropdown menu bar. 
2. Click User Logins…. The EASY CPU – Login 
Manager dialog box appears.

3. Click New User…. The Login Properties dialog 
box appears (Figure 50).

4.  Complete the Login ID, Password, and Confirm 
fields in the Login Properties dialog box for the 
new user. 
5.  In the Access Level field, click on the scroll 
buttons to choose the appropriate access level for 
the new user (1 being the lowest level, 9 being the 
highest level). 
Note: The Access Level field is grayed out for the 
first user so that user will have all administrator 
privileges. This field is available to set access 
levels for subsequent users. 
CAUTION:
 Be sure that at least one user has an 
access level of 9. Failure to maintain such a user 
might lock users out of the system and require a 
system reinstallation. 
6. Click OK to save the new user properties or 
Cancel to close the dialog box without saving the 
properties. 
7.  Repeat this process for all users for whom logins 
are desired. 
Note: You also can modify or delete users in the 
Login Properties dialog box whenever buttons are 
not grayed out. 
8.  Be sure to save these changes and write the 
modified configuration file to the CPU. 
Note: With the user login function enabled, all newly 
initiated program sessions will require users to log in 
before reading or writing configuration data.
