After the changed password is reflected, the new password can be used.
Once you enter the password (log in), you do not need to enter a password afterwards, except as follows:
For View Web Server Contents, Read Web Server Data and Write Web Server Data, once you enter the password on the Server, you are recognized as having logged in. Therefore, you do not have to enter the password.
However, even when you have logged in, authentication is required for security every time you view an HTML page and it is confirmed that the current Web Server log-in data exists in the display unit.
Therefore, if the log-in data has been changed or deleted with the password change feature, an authentication error occurs when viewing an HTML page and a password will be required.
In this case, enter a new password to log in again.
(This occurs in both ID mode and password mode.)
Logic Monitor
A password will be required every time, independent of GP-Pro EX settings.
If the user ID data of the current user has been changed or deleted, the internally held user ID is deleted and the current security level is changed to 0.
If the password required for screen change and the like has been deleted, it becomes impossible to function without the security. However, if the set password has a level equal to or higher than the required level, that password can be used.
