42 DCA Vantage Operator’s Guide
Operating the System
Operator IDs and Access Codes
By default, the system access is Unrestricted. In this mode, the Operator
button is always available. Selecting the Operator button displays a new
screen that enables you to add, edit, and delete operators.
NOTE: The term Operator ID replaces the term User ID used in earlier
versions of DCA Vantage software.
You can add up to 1000 operators. Each Operator ID and access code must
be unique. When system access is set to Fully Restricted or Restricted Plus,
the operator enters his or her access code to continue. The system auto-
populates the Operator ID data entry item according to the user's entered
password (Access Code or Support ID of the Day) when the following
conditions are true:
• Patient or control test is being run
• System access is configured as Fully Restricted or Restricted Plus mode
• User has been authenticated after entering a valid password
