Re: [foxboro] Screen Lists and Protections

Dale,
You may want to look at Protection Class on a Mill wide basis. You can specify 
the Protection Class on a station by station basis but without co-ordination, 
you could have access class 100 protecting one function on one station and 100 
protecting another function on another station. Obviously, this risk of 
conflict depends on the size of your system, but I have visited sites where 
there was a mix because one consultant did one sector and another consultant 
did another sector.

Protecting the Operators from using the right mouse selects in FoxView is 
usually required on a system. Sometimes the "System" button must be protected. 
If the Protection Class is not uniform across a Mill, you might get into 
trouble if someone copied Environment files from one station to another station.

IA (have not checked for V8) is capable of 255 classes, so I usually suggest a 
spreadsheet with the 255 classes defined. (Many are defined as "free"). If all 
people in a Mill consult the spreadsheet before configuring or editing files, 
then your protection class should be uniform across the whole Mill.

Maybe the guys at the User Group meeting can ask Limewire or Integrity if they 
can help by generating a report to summarize the Protection Classes on an IA 
station.
