Managing the User Access List
Managing the User Access List
When you are logged in at the Admin level you can add, edit, or delete user names
in the user access list. The user list can contain up to 20 names and users can be
set to one of three different security levels described in Table 5-1. Users are
required to enter a user name and password to log in to the system. Users can
access or modify only the parameter settings allowed by their assigned security
level.
Use the procedures in this section to manage user access to the TimeCreator 1000.
Login
Use the following procedure to log in to the system at the admin level.
1. Ensure that the TimeCreator 1000 is connected to a LAN, or directly connected
to a PC through the EIA-232 serial port. See Making Communications
Connections, on page 53.
2. If the TimeCreator 1000 is connected to a LAN, Telnet from your PC to the
assigned IP address, and start a Telnet session and press Enter.
Caution: To avoid a possible service call, do not lose or misplace the
user name and password of the Admin-level user.
Caution: After three failed login attempts the user account is locked
out for 15 minutes; this includes the admin user. To avoid a service
call, it is recommended that at least two admin-level users be
configured.
