3.3.1 Account Manager
To manage login accounts (e.g., add/delete users, set up passwords, etc.) open the Account
Manager utility. On a Windows platform, this page can be accessed from the Account
Manager shortcut installed during CanogaView installation (see Figure 3-6. Shortcut
Menu) or the Utilities option from the CanogaView Start page (see Figure 3-8:
CanogaView Start Page).
On a UNIX platform or remote windows platform, open the URL for the Account Manager as
documented in Section 3.2.1 and 3.2.2.

Two user login accounts are automatically created when CanogaView is installed:
• guest - this is used for both user name and password. This login account has been pre-
installed with the observer access level.
• admin - this is used for both user name and password. This login account has been pre-
installed with the Supervisor access level.
Note: Taking into consideration security issues, it is advisable to either remove or change
the pre-installed access accounts.
Use the admin account when establishing new users. To establish new users click the "Add
User" button. Fill in the desired user name and password, then select a user security level
via the drop-down menu. This setting defines the level of access the user will have upon
login. This setting is important and will limit the security level placed upon users for specific
applications and fields.
Note: Accounts and passwords are case sensitive.
After 3 unsuccessful attempts an account will be set to an Enabled State of “locked out”
as it will no longer be a valid account until the Enabled State is reset to “enabled” by a
user with administrative privileges.
