Chapter 4

Getting Started/Using the Security Levels

4 – 2

Why have different security levels available?
The different security levels allow for implementation of a hierarchical
system of access to and responsibility for the Color CVIM module setup.
For instance, a system “administrator” can be designated; this person would
have access to the ADMINISTRATOR level. The ADMINISTRATOR could
be responsible for creating restrictions to the menu items available at the user
level (through menu item deletion), for modifying menu item text, and for
maintenance and security of the passwords which allow access to the
different levels.

A “manager” can be designated, having access to the MANAGER level (that
is, having access to any deleted menus items). Designated “users” would
have access to the USER level; a “user” cannot, for example, modify menus,
change passwords, or set security ON or OFF. The “user” is able to use the
other USER-PAK and base Color CVIM module capabilities, except those
deleted from the menus at the system administrator level. Finally, at the
“runtime” level, only use of runtime menus and displays is available.

How do you enter a password for access to the setup mode?
You enter the password through the password keyboard; this keyboard
appears automatically when you select

Setup

on the runtime screen.

What happens if a password is lost?
Entry to the setup mode can be enabled through the use of the USER-PAK
Installation/Key card, should passwords be lost. See “Lost Passwords –
Using the Installation/Key Card” later in this chapter.
