Customizing a user’s access privileges

Only an administrator can allocate access privileges to Operator and Guest
users. The access privileges can be customized for each user’s needs. The
administrator’s access privileges cannot be changed.

There are three types of privilege settings: Local Configuration, Remote
Configuration, and Camera Configuration.

Note: Only the administrator can restore factory default settings.

Local configuration settings:

• Local Log Search: Search and view logs of the DVR.

• Local Parameter Settings: Configure parameters. You can also

import/export the configuration from the DVR.

• Local Advanced Operation: Access HDD management (including the

initialization and modification of disk properties). Update system firmware as
well as stop the I/O alarm output.

• Local Shutdown/Reboot: Shutdown or reboot the DVR.
