Sensia JISKOOT InSpec Sampler User Manual

SECTION 2: COMMON SOFTWARE FEATURES InSpec Sampler Controller

LOGOUT
This simply logs out the current user. The only option available then will be the LOGIN USER
option described previously above.
WHO AM I?
This allows quick identification of who is currently logged into the system. It may be useful for
various reasons, e.g., if an unattended InSpec is still logged in you can see who previously logged in.
SECURITY TIMEOUT
Only users logged in with engineer level access can set the security timeout value. If you have
adequate access and select this option, you will be asked whether you want to enable a timeout value
for both an operator and an engineer. If you select yes for either, you will then be prompted to enter the
timeout value in minutes. When this timeout value occurs, the user will be logged out and the only option
then available will be LOGIN USER as described previously above. A user must now log back in to
initiate a batch or make any changes.
The timeout facility is very useful when users with engineering access are configuring the
system. They can then lengthen the timeout period to prevent repeated user logins. For day to day
operation of the InSpec we advise enabling the timeout facility.
ADD USER
Only users logged in with engineer level access can add new users to the InSpec security
system. The process of adding a user involves entering the username, password, level of access
(Operator or Engineer), and their user ID (Note: A user ID can be used to group users together for
notification purposes. E.g., UCL script files can be written to setup email addresses for notification
depending on which user id is currently logged in etc).
The username must be unique. If the user already exists, the process of adding the new user
will be automatically cancelled.
Note: As the numeric keypad is not accessible for the InSpec-Ex, you must use the
cursors to enter text via scrolling through the character sets using the cursor keys. For this
reason, we strongly advise only using numerical passwords on an InSpec-Ex to avoid spending
a long time scrolling through the entire character set looking for specific characters.
Note: Blank passwords are also acceptable. If for whatever reason this is acceptable
within your system. We would naturally suggest you add passwords to enable security.
EDIT USER
All users logged in to the InSpec can access this edit option. Users with engineer access can
edit\delete other engineer accounts but operators can only edit their own account. Operators cannot
change engineer accounts or any other operator’s account. The edit user menu interface allows for the
password, security access level and user id to be changed.
SECURITY TIMEOUT
This item allows a user with Engineer access to enable/disable the menu timeout facility and to
specify the length of the timeout in minutes. This is very useful when users with engineering access are
configuring the system. They can then lengthen the timeout period to work around having to keep log
back in every couple of minutes. For day to day operation of the InSpec we advise enabling the timeout
facility. When the menu time out occurs, it reverts back to the logged out mode. A user must now log
back in to initiate a batch or make any changes.
