Administration Windows
User Settings Window
The User Settings window lets you configure the following types of IP camera users:
• Administrator—Can access all IP camera windows, features, and functions.
• Viewer—Can access only the Camera Video/Control window and all features in that window except:
–
Video image controls
–
Set Current Preset as Home button
–
Add Preset Position button
–
Deleted Selected Preset button
–
Pan/tilt speed controls
–
Motion detection controls
There is always at least one user with Administrator privileges configured. The user name of this user is
“admin.” You can configure up to four additional users and assign privilege levels to each one.
When you configure users, follow these guidelines:
• After you enter a name, password, and privilege level for a user, click Add next to the user
information to save your changes.
• To change the password for an existing user, click Change next to the user name.
• To remove a user, click Delete next to the user. If you delete a user who is logged into the IP camera,
the user remains logged in and can continue access the IP camera.
• To change the name of a user, you must delete the user then create a new user.
To display the User Settings window, access the configuration windows as described in the “Performing
the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-5, click Administration, then click Users.
Table 3-18 describes the options in the User Settings window.
