LINK Systems LinkNet II - Manual (Page 24)

4.2 Operator Configuration
Before anything else can be
done in LinkNet, operators must be
configured. Any number of
operators can be configured, each
with separate pass codes and
permissions. To configure
operators, select “Configure” and
then “Operators” from the LinkNet
menu. The login list should appear
(See Figure 4.1 for an example).
After login, an operator list box
similar to Figure 4.2 should appear.
From the operator configuration
list, operators can be added, edited,
or deleted.

4.2.1 Adding
an Operator
To add an operator, hit the
“Add Operator” button at the
bottom of the operator list (see
Figure 4.2). A dialog box similar to
Figure 4.3 will appear. Clicking
the “Tabs” along the top of the
dialog box (labeled “General”,
“Comp. Perm.”, “Miscellaneous”,
and “Notes”) will show different
aspects of the operator
configuration.
4.2.1.1 Operator General
Information
The “General” tab (see Figure
4.3 for an example) contains, as
expected, some general information
about the operator. The first entry
needed is “Operator Name”. This
can be the name of a specific
person, a job description, or
anything else meaningful and will show up in the login list as shown in Figure 4.1. “Employee ID” is an
optional field. At present, it is not used by LinkNet itself. The pass code can be up to four numeric
digits. “Operator Number”, at the bottom of the dialog box, is the unique number assigned to the
operator for internal database operations and is displayed for information only.
