Navigation:  Users > User Accounts

The program has two kind of user accounts: Admin account, and Standard account.

By default, you are logged under admin account. This means you have a full control over the cameras and settings. You can add, remove cameras, configure them, to access general settings. You can also start and stop monitoring and recording on cameras.

Unlike the Administrator, the Standard users can only observe. The settings are not available for them. They cannot start or stop Monitoring or Recording.

Surveillance and video playback - are two things only thing they can do. Web access is available for Standard users. To access the program in the web browser, the Standard user must enter his User name and Password.

The User accounts are configured on the "Users" tab of the General Settings:

 

 

The Admin user always exists and cannot be removed. You can change the User name and a password.

To add the standard users, you have to click the "Add User" button. After that, choose the user in the list, and change his name and password in the relevant text fields.

 

The user names and passwords (admin and standard) are used for web access too. When you try to connect to the program from the Web, your web browser will ask you for a user name and a password. It will accept the name and password or Admin or any of the Standard users.
