Equipment and Recipe Editor security

Security for
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
 and
FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
 is implemented using the
FactoryTalk
 Security product policies defined in the
FactoryTalk
 Network Directory. There are two product policy options available:
  • Access Modes
     governs access to the editors (only
    FactoryTalk
     users can be granted access). There are two levels of working access to area models in
    FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
    , and recipes in
    FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
    .
    • View Only
       provides full viewing privileges, but no changes can be saved.
    • Full Edit
      provides full editing privileges.
  • Feature Security
     governs which
    FactoryTalk
     users can secure area models and recipes to the
    FactoryTalk
     Network Directory Security Authority Identifier (SAI).
    • The
      Area Model: Secure
       policy governs which users can secure an area model to a particular SAI in
      FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
      .
    • The
      Recipe: Secure
       policy governs which users can secure a recipe to a particular SAI in
      FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
      .
Additionally, there are other
Configuration Options
 product policies created in the
FactoryTalk
 Local Directory for the editors.
  • To tighten security, remove the
    All Users
     group from
    FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
     and
    FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
     product policies in the
    FactoryTalk Directory
    .
  • FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
     and
    FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
     support the use of an external security device, such as a retinal scanner.
  • In addition to
    FactoryTalk
     Security, configure Windows security on
    FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
     and
    FactoryTalk Batch Recipe Editor
     files and folders in Windows Explorer.
  • RDB security can also be configured when using RDB recipes that are stored in SQL Server.
