Communication Channel Privileges

We assigned class 4 as the default privilege class for channel
communication, and R (read only) or RW (read/write) privileges to
classes 1-4 for controlling channel access.
Important: Default class privileges cannot be assigned to scanner or
adapter channels; just to channel 0 or any channel configured for a DH
network (for communication with a programming terminal).
To view the Channel Privileges screen that allocates these privileges,
follow this procedure for 6200 series software (the procedure for AI5
software would be similar):
1. Start at the Main Menu.
2. Press [F7] - General Utility.
The system displays the General Utility screen.
3. Press [F4] - Channel Overview
The system displays the Channel Overview screen.
4. Press [F2] - Channel Privileges
You get the Channel Privileges screen.
We assigned privileges for classes 1-4 at the factory.
