using). Under System in the Explorer pane, right-click Networks and Devices and
select Security. On the Permissions tab, select the new domain user. (If the user

above.
5. Open the FactoryTalk Administration Console and add the new Windows user
account created above as a new Windows-linked user.
Set up RSLogix software permissions.
1. In the FactoryTalk Administration Console, create a new user group called “Local
Agent Users.” Add each of the new FactoryTalk users created in step 5 above to the
Local Agent Users group. This will facilitate making security settings because you
will be able to set them once for the whole group, rather than for each user.
2. Grant the Local Agent Users group read access to the FactoryTalk Directory. To do
so, right-click the Network node at the top of the tree, and then select Security. On
