Reset user rights management to default

Reset via EcoStruxure Machine Expert

The Online > Security > Reset user rights management to default is also available in the contextual menu of the controllers. It allows you to reset the device user rights to the default settings.

 CAUTION
NO ACCESS VIA FTP, HTTP, OPC-UA
When you reset the user rights management to the default values, access to FTP, HTTP and OPC-UA servers is denied until you set your individual user name and password.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

Confirm the message with OK if you are sure to reset the user rights management to the default settings.

Reset via Webserver

The Modicon M241 Logic Controller, Modicon M251 Logic Controller, and the Modicon M262 Logic/Motion Controller support the reset of device user rights management via the embedded webserver: MAINTENANCE > USER MANAGEMENT > USER ACCOUNTS MANAGEMENT > RESET TO DEFAULT.

Consult the Programming Guide specific to your controller for further information:

Reset via Controller Assistant

With EcoStruxure Machine Expert V1.2 and later, the service tool Controller Assistant supports user rights management of the controllers. Refer to the Controller Assistant User Guide for further information.
