Section 11. Utilities Installed with LoggerNet Admin and LoggerNet Remote

Enter the IP address or alias for the LoggerNet server (e.g., LocalHost), leave

the User Name and Password fields blank, and press OK. A wizard is launched

to help you set up an Administrator Account, which will be used for managing

the security for the LoggerNet network. Follow the instructions on screen to set

up the account. Once the setup is complete, the Security Manager will display

its main window, and from here, you can begin setting up user accounts.

When setting up new accounts, one of five levels can be assigned to each user.

Multiple accounts with Full Administrator rights can be set up, if desired. Only

users with Full Administrator rights can open and make changes in the Security

Manager (regardless of whether or not security is enabled).

Once the security accounts have been set up, select the

Enable Security check

box to turn on security for the LoggerNet server.

the Security Manager’s main window. A New Account dialog box is opened.

The fields for this box are:

Account Name

Enter the name to be used for the account. This name will

be typed in each time the user connects to the LoggerNet

server using a client application.

Password

Enter the password for the account. Passwords are case

sensitive. As you type, each character will be represented

on the screen with an asterisk.
