Note
Restrictions when transferring the configuration
Note that you as "User" can only transfer changes when the device status of the
communication module is "Idle". As an "administrator", you can also transfer changes even
when the device status is "Run".
The following table provides you with an overview of the menu items that are restricted for
the "User" role:

In addition, changes cannot be transferred to the communication module using the "Transfer
configuration to communication module" button.
Auto logout
In this area, you can define the time period after which you are automatically logged out of
the WBM. This time period expires due to inactivity and is automatically reset to the value you
have set. As soon as the configured time period has expired, the connection to the
communications module is automatically terminated. This ensures that the connection to the
communications module is not blocked by an inactive user and is shared with other users.
Authentication
In this area, you can enable/disable authentication. Note that any user has all read/write
privileges (administrator rights) when authentication is disabled.
NOTICE
Security recommendation: Authentication
To ensure that no unauthorized persons can access the communications module settings,
we recommend that you enable the authentication and create new user profiles. Note that
authentication can only be enabled/disabled by an administrator.
