Deleting a platform user account (controller)

As a security precaution, platform users should be limited to only valid users. Others should be deleted.

You are working in Workbench and are connected to a remote controller platform.
Any platform user can delete any other platform user except:

  • The user active in the current platform session

  • The original platform user, meaning the one created in the Remove platform default user account step when using the Commissioning Wizard to commission the controller. Such users cannot be selected to delete.

  1. Expand the Platform node in the Nav tree or double-click Platform.
    The contents of the Nav Container view opens in the tree or in the main view.
  2. Double-click the Platform Administration.
    The Platform Administration view opens.
  3. Click the User Accounts button.
    The Manage platform daemon users window opens.
  4. Select the user account to delete, click Delete User and click OK.
    Workbench deletes the user account.
