We used to have around 10-15 laptops.
then, maintenance started making lots of changes, downloaded a program into the plc that had recipes for other materials, and so on.
as they died, we didn't replace them.
now there are only 1 or 2. all other access for maintenance is through the restricted access, toggle bits, change timers, counters, and force bits program. the main guys that made the changes are no longer here.
the main is/it guys ( that's me and another) do the wonderware apps, SQL, plc programming, mmi programming, web pages.
life is a lot easier now that those that have left don't make changes.
