NOTE: Only an Administrator-level account can add, modify, or delete users. Control-level and View-
Only accounts can change their own passwords via the Modify button, but cannot add or delete
accounts, or Modify other accounts. The Guest account cannot add, delete, or modify any account,
not even itself.
To add or modify a user account:
1. Click the Add or Modify User icon.
2. Create or modify the account information as needed.
a. Username: The name of the account. User names may be up to 24 characters long, are
case-sensitive, and may not contain spaces or any of these prohibited characters: $&`:<>[
] { }"+%@/ ; =?\^|~',
NOTE: A username cannot be changed after the account is created.
b. Administrator: If set to True, this account has Administrator-level access to the unit, and
can change any setting.
c. Control: If set to True, this account has Control-level access. Setting Administrator to
True will automatically set Control to True as well. Setting this to False makes the account
a View-Only account.
d. New Password: Account passwords may be up to 24 characters long, are case-sensitive,
and may not contain spaces.
e. Account Status: Set the account to Enabled or Disabled. Disabling an account prevents it
from being used to log in, but does not delete it from the account list.
3. Click Save.
User account types
• Administrator: Administrator accounts (accounts with both administrator and control
authority set to True, as above) have full control over all available functions and settings on the
device, including the ability to modify system settings and add, modify, or delete other users'
accounts.
• Control: Control accounts (accounts with only control set to True) have control over all
settings pertaining to the device's sensors. They can add, modify, or delete alarms & warning
events and notification actions, and can change the names or labels of the device and its
sensors. Control accounts cannot modify system settings or make changes to other users'
accounts.
• View: If both administrator and control are set to False, the account is a view-only account. The
only changes a view-only account is permitted to make are changing their own account's
password, and changing the preferred language for their own account. View-Only accounts
cannot change any device or system settings.
