This is the code set during Installation of Advantech WebAccess/SCADA SCADA node software on the SCADA node. If the code entered here does not match the code specified during configuration (located in the BWSERVER.INI file on the SCADA node), you will not be able to connect to the SCADA node or download your project to the SCADA node. This is a security feature to prevent unauthorized users from downloading projects to your SCADA node.
The default Remote Access Code during SCADA node installation is no code (i.e. blank.)
The Remote Access Code used during Installation of the Project Node appears here in the Project Manager Database when you Create a New SCADA node. This is not necessarily the same as on your SCADA node. If this is a combined Project/SCADA node, the default password in your database is the correct password and you do not need to change it.
If the SCADA Node is a separate PC, then you must enter the Remote Access code used during software installation on the SCADA node.
If you have forgotten the Remote Access Code using during software installation on the SCADA node, you have two options:
option 1) Re-install the Advantech WebAccess/SCADA software on the SCADA node to change it and edit your database to match the new code using UPDATE.
OR
Option 2) Edit the BWSERVER.INI file on the SCADA node and edit your database to match the new code using UPDATE.
Hint - if this is a combined SCADA and Project Node, you have to reinstall using the Project & SCADA software option and edit the remote access code in the database for both the project and SCADA node using UPDATE.
