Add Local User
To add a local user to the control system, issue the ADDUSER command.
• Syntax: ADDUSER -N:username -P:password
o -N: Specifies the name of the local user that will be created
o -L: Specifies a password for the local user
• Example: ADDUSER -N:jsmith -p:user01
A local user is created without any access rights. To assign access rights to a local
user, the user must be added to at least one local group. For more information,
refer to "Add User to Group" on page 13.
Delete Local User
To remove a local user from the control system, issue the DELETEUSER username
command.
When a local user is removed, the user is also removed from any local groups.
Add Local Group
To add a local group to the control system, issue the ADDGROUP command.
• Syntax: ADDGROUP -N:groupname -L:accesslevel
o -N: Specifies the name of the local group that will be created
o -L: Specifies the access level for the local group
A: Administrator
P: Programmer
O: Operator
U: User
C: Connection only
• Example: ADDGROUP -N:CresProgs -L:P
NOTE: A predefined access level must be assigned to a group when it is created.
When a user is added to a group, the user inherits the access level set for the
group. Certain control system functions and console commands are accessible
only to users with corresponding access levels.
If a user belongs to multiple groups, the user's access level is the combined
access level of all groups that contain the user.
