Controlling Access to viewLinc
viewLinc 4.3 4 | 4 37
Once a User is assigned a Group and Rights, the Rights of that User is
actually a combination of the assigned User rights plus his/her Group
rights.
For example, if User1 has Manage Devices Rights and is assigned to
Group1, which has Manage Locations Rights, the Rights for User1 are
Manage Locations and Manage Devices.
Note that access to Locations is permitted by Access Control List (ACL).
Access Control Permissions
After being granted Rights to access specific tasks within viewLinc
program windows, the Administrator can then grant Users or Groups
Access Control permission.
This permission allows the Administrator to specify which Users or
Groups have access to view or perform tasks for specific Zones or
Locations.
viewLinc offers several Access Control privileges, as outlined in the
following table:
Permission Definition
Hide All Access Control permission disabled. Since Access Control
is inherited from the top Zone down, the Administrator can use
this permission to hide specific Locations within a Zone or
Sub-zone.
Full Control User can view the Zone/Location, acknowledge alarms, and,
if assigned Manage Locations Right, can configure custom
Threshold alarm settings and apply alarm schedules.
Configure
Alarms User can view the Zone/Location, acknowledge alarms, and,
if assigned Manage Locations Right, can also apply alarm
schedules.
Configure
Custom
Thresholds User can view the Zone/Location, acknowledge alarms, and,
if assigned Manage Locations Right, can configure custom
Threshold settings.
