6 Securing Access Rights
6.1 Access Control at the Windows Operating System Level
We recommend choosing your local IT specialist as the system administrator for the general administration of
the Windows operations. This person should undertake the confi guration of the settings that regulate access to
the system at the operating system level. One default user at the operating system level has been factory installed:
The Win-Admin user (default password Win-Admin) acts as system administrator for the operating system
and has full access to all elements on the desktop including the ability to add/delete programs.
6.2 Access Control at the Cedex HiRes System Software Level
To launch the software, do the following:
1
Check that the Cedex Server software has already been automatically started (it may appear as a minimized
window in the task bar at the bottom of the computer screen). If it is not automatically started, start the
server by double-clicking on the Cedex Server icon on the desktop.
2
Start the Cedex HiRes Software 2.2 by double clicking the Cedex Client icon on the desk top (the Cedex
Server must be successfully launched before the Cedex Client can be started). The Log In window of the
Cedex HiRes System will open.
3
Enter the username and password in the respective fi elds. By default, the following users are available after
installation:
a. Superuser (password spass)
b. Administrator (password apass)
■
For the Cedex HiRes Software, there should generally be at least three levels of users. In addition to normal
Cedex HiRes System users, who will only use the Cedex HiRes System for carrying out measurements, both a
Cedex HiRes System Superuser and an Administrator should be appointed. The Cedex HiRes System Super-
user assumes the main responsibility of handling the Cedex HiRes System, whereas the Administrator creates
and administers user accounts.
For security reasons, both the Administrator and Superuser should protect their access to the Cedex HiRes
Software 2.2 with new passwords after initial installation. Follow the instructions below to secure access and
defi ne a new password:
1
Log in as Administrator or Superuser.
2
Click on the System menu in the Cedex Control Center.
3
Click on Change own password. The Change Password window will appear.
4
Enter the old password fi rst. The new password needs to be entered twice.
5
Confi rm by pressing OK.
■
After logging in, users can change their own passwords at any time by following the same procedure.
After installation, the user Administrator should set up regular user accounts and provide the necessary rights
before regular users run measurements (see “Administration of User Accounts”).
For security reasons, the Cedex HiRes System Administrator is generally only accorded administrative rights
and cannot carry out, reprocess or view measurements.
