Creating a HMI Login Screen on AdvancedHMI - Explaining the Code

We will be creating an HMI (human-machine interface) login screen for the cylinder program that we developed previously. https://accautomation.ca/building-a-plc-program-that-you-can-be-proud-of-part-6 Our program had a Run, Jog, and Teach mode for the cylinders. Our user will login with a user name and password. Based upon the user level that is set we will control what modes each user will be able to operate. We will also write this user-level mode into the PLC. We will be using AdvancedHMI to communicate Modbus TCP to the Automation Direct Do-More Designer Software Simulator. An access database (Access 2010) will be used to store our user information. When the operator logs into the system, they will enter a user name and password. The program will compare this to the information in the database and set the appropriate modes on the HMI. Step by step tutorial on the connection to the access database from VB.Net is on our website. More information can be obtained at our website. This includes the programming code to download. https://accautomation.ca/creating-a-hmi-login-screen-on-advancedhmi/ To watch the running of the program: https://youtu.be/g0kAJw9VH8U https://accautomation.ca/
