5.6.2 Create a New User Account (Administrators Only)

An administrator may create user accounts for up to 50 users, including the administrator account.

Only users with administrative privileges may create user accounts.
To do this, log in as an administrator (see 5.1 - Open the Web Interface and Log In) and:

• Click on the Security tab to display the Security window, as shown below.

• Choose Add New User from the User drop-down list.
• Enter a name for this user in the User box. The user name is case-sensitive and must be alphanu-

meric (spaces are allowed).

• Enter a password for this user in the Password box. The password is also case-sensitive and must

be alphanumeric (spaces are allowed). Verify the password by entering it again in the Confirm

Password box.

• Specify the type of access privileges for this user by placing a check mark in the appropriate

Access box:

Read permits viewing only; users cannot make any changes, except to their own passwords.
Write (includes Read access) allows access to all functions except other users’ accounts; users

can view data, change configuration settings and change their own passwords.

Administration (includes Read & Write access) provides full access to all functions, includ-

ing creating and modifying other user accounts.

• Specify whether the Web interface will log off automatically after the computer is idle for a speci-

fied time in the Inactivity Timeout drop-down list. The choices are Never or 1, 2, 5, 15 or 60 min-

utes. This setting is applied to all users.

• Click Apply to make these changes effective. (To cancel the changes, click Reset.)
