Activating the multiuser function for a PLC project

To activate this function for a PLC project that is not yet managed through the multiuser functionality, carry out the following steps:

1. Activate the Use Multiuser option in the project settings of the PLC project that is to be managed through the multiuser functionality. (See PLC project settings)
2. Click the Init button to make the settings for the multiuser function and initialize the function.
The Settings tab of the Multiuser Explorer window opens automatically.
If you close the window by mistake, you can find it under the menu TwinCAT -> Multiuser Explorer.
3. In the ADS Route field, select a target system for the multiuser repository.
4. In the Multiuser Repository field, select a name for the multiuser repository.
5. If required, select the option Ask for update message on each usage. (See also Settings tab)
6. Click the Init local and remote button.
The multiuser repositories in the project and on the target system are initialized.
1. Click the button Init once again so that the URL of the multiuser repository is stored in the project.
If the URL is stored directly in the project, this facilitates local initialization for this project on additional systems.
