Setting Up Password
The
password setup allows you to assign permission and rights
to users. You can create up to 1,000 passwords. The
system will control and restrict access to system resources
based on the permission and rights associated with each
user account. Only Supervisor account level is pre-set
with the access to the Password Setup function. Click
the Configure button and select Password Setup to display
the following window.
To add a new user:
1. Click the New button at the lower-left hand corner
to bring up the New Account dialog box.
2. Enter the user’s ID name and
password. Re-enter the same password in the Password
Confirmation field.
3. Give a Hint (optional) that would
remind you of the password.
4. Select the user’s authorization
level: Supervisor, PowerUser, User or Guest. By default,
users belonging to the Supervisor level have full rights
over GV-system settings. PowerUsers have the same permission
and rights as Supervisors, except that they cannot edit
user information and delete the password system (described
later). Users belonging to the User level are restricted
to all system settings, and have only limited access
to certain functions. Users in the Guest level can only
view videos.
5. Click OK to add the user.
To edit an exiting user:
(Only supervisors are allowed to do it.)
1. Select a user from the user list
to display its properties. Or, right click on any of
the user levels (User, PowerUser, Supervisor), and then
select Find Specific Account for quick search. A valid
password is required to edit a supervisor.
2. Edit the properties as required.
Check the Account Is Disabled item if you wish to disable
this user.
Three options you may also find in this dialog box:
Login this ID automatically:
Enabling this option allows auto login with this ID.
Export this ID for Remote Control:
This option allows the export of users IDs for
the remote control. When it is checked, you can see
the designated ID in the drop-down menu of login. (Note:
For the operation of remote control, the password should
be restricted for digits.)
Allow removing password system:
This option lets users remove the ID and password database
from GV system. To do this, select this option (only
Supervisor level users can make the selection), and
then find PassUnInStall in the system folder. Click
the application, and a message prompts to you for confirmation.
Click Yes to remove the entire ID and password from
GV system.
Note: If the option of
Allow Removing Password System is not checked, the loss
of passwords will require the reinstallation of Windows
and the reset of passwords.
