4.2.8 SECURITY, USER RIGHTS
The ADCS Tools program that runs the ADCS-601 system includes provisions to protect
against undesired editing and changes to program parameters. The protection system is
based on user rights.
ADCS Tools always has an active user. User access can be password protected. User
rights can be managed to prevent a user from being able to make changes in specific areas
of ADCS Tools.
See
Table 12 for a description of the User Access areas that can be limited by management
of user rights.
The typical set up of ADCS Tools to
manager user rights is for the “Admin” user to be
password controlled and only used by the system manager. The system manager can then
set up and delete specific users with user passwords as desired.

4.2.8.1 SETTING UP USERS AND MANAGING USER RIGHTS
When ADCS Tools is first installed, two users are already set up.
1. User name: Admin
Password: None
User access: All
NOTE: This user cannot be deleted or edited. To prevent unintended use of
the Admin user, change its password.
2. User name: Test User
Password: None
User access: DUT, Edit Plots, Features, Program Options
To set up or delete users or to edit user rights or passwords, the active user must
have acces to the <Users> access area. The “Admin” user always has this access.
To manage users and user rights select [Setup], [Setup Users] from the ADCS
Tools main menu.
To create a new user, press the [Create] button. The red, flashing <Editing
User> bar appears. Edit <User Name> and <Password> as desired. Use the
checbox list under <User Access> to grant access to user areas (see
Table 12).
When editing is complete, press the [Save] botton to save the new user.
