Changing Community Names

The system administrator manages access rights (read and write, read only, etc.) by making communities in the device, in the Community Table. When the community name is changed, the access rights are changed.

Change a Community Device Name

To change a Community Device name:

  1. On the Menu Bar click Services.

  2. On the Services menu, click Community Change. The Community Change window is displayed

  3. Type in the new community name.

Note: Type in the new community name exactly as it appears in the system administrator Community Table or the station with Super access. Any incorrect community name is accepted by the Community Change window, but access to read or write data is unavailable.

  1. Click  . When the Status field displays “Community was changed!”, the entry is confirmed as changed.
