Re: [foxboro] Screen Lists and Protections

Hi Dale,

Good tips from Russ and Tom. I don't know what release you are at but
B0700AT "Workstation Alarm Management" Section 7 has a discussion on
Security. Included is how to change AM environment: 

        1. to the FoxView environment when the FoxView environment is
changed
        2. to the FoxView environment when the AM is started
        3. and more.

Although this document is written for 8.x, the section on environments
applies to earlier I/A versions. This document is an updated version of
B0193RV (7.x, 6.x).

Subject: [foxboro] Screen Lists and Protections

Hello List,

Hoping someone can help me out.  Even point me to the proper Manual.  I
have a P91 Server 2003 Version 8.3.  I run 10 TSCals off this server for
remote operator stations.  I want the operators on some of the TSCal's
to have access to CLEAR PAGE, CLEAR ALARM, ACK ALARM but not the BLOCK
DETAILS button on the CAD Display.  In other Cases I want only to allow
them (operators) to have access to ACK ALARM, and ACK PAGE and no other
buttons, especially not the BLOCK DETAILS button.  

So to do this I simply put proper access levels on these buttons in the
Display Alarm Configurator.  I also set up SCREENS and associations AND
types for the different TSCals and they seem to work fine and call up
the proper Environment when called etc.....HOWEVER when the CAD is
called initially from these TSCals the Buttons for BLOCK DETAIL, CLEAR
ALARM, CLEAR PAGE are all unprotected until I manually go in and do a
ChangeEnv myself.  Can anyone point me in the right direction as to have
this protected on the initial call of the CAD AM?
