Linking the user database to a project
Initially, a project must be manually linked to a user database. The linking to the database is then stored in the project.
- Always make a backup copy of your project before connecting it with a user database.
- A user database has been created and activated. A TwinCAT project is opened.
- 1. In the TwinCAT project, double-click the SYSTEM node to open the system settings.
- 2. Open the Settings tab.
- 3. In the User Database area, check the Connect with current user database check box.
- The project is now linked to the user database. The Security area becomes visible in the Properties of a project component.
