Users, Connections, and Notes

Since this user is provided in secure mode (JITC) as well, an active alarm is displayed upon login, indicating the existence of an SA_PLCM_Integration default user, and recommending replacing it with an alternate one for security reasons.

This user should be recognized by the DMA/XMA as well, thus enable their logging into the MCU without any undue messages, with the exception of the active alarm stated above upon logging into a secure machine.
