Log Off from ViewX

When you finish your ViewX session or need to leave your workstation unattended, you should close any ViewX displays (such as Mimics, Trends, or Lists) that are currently open. You should then log off. This will prevent anyone else from accessing the system using your logon credentials once you have moved away from your workstation.

You can log off from all of the Geo SCADA Expert systems (databases) to which you are connected, or just one system.

Your user session might also be configured to time out after a period of user inactivity. If this occurs, you will be prompted to confirm your password when you attempt to access the system (see ViewX Client Session Expiry due to User Inactivity).

To log off from all systems on to which you are logged, either:

  1. Close any ViewX displays that are currently open (such as Mimics, Trends, or Lists).
  2. Select the Home tab on the ViewX ribbon.
  3. Select the Log Off command from the relevant command group.

Or:

  1. Select the Log Off command to the right of the ViewX title bar. This command is only available if a non-guest user is logged on. If this is the case, the command will display a lock icon.

The Log Off window displays, allowing you to log off from one or more systems simultaneously.

 

To log off from a particular system:

  1. Close any ViewX displays that are currently open (such as Mimics, Trends, or Lists).
