Multiple Users Connection
Multiple users connect to same HMI at the same time
Multiple users can connect to the same HMI at the same time. This function is controlled by Domain Admin. Configure the settings in the settings page. When this function is enabled, all domain users can use this functionality (also need to upgrade EasyAccess 2.0 app version to 2.9 or later).
When HMI is already connected by other user, you can still connect the same HMI and see all connected users by click Occupied (N) hint. Currently there is a limitation for maximum 3 users to connect to same HMI.
