MIDAS 4.2 Basic Configuration, Rev. 1

Setup and Operation

To add a new user, click Add, which displays the Enter User Name window.

Type the name of the user, and click OK. The User Security Settings window is
displayed.

This window allows the operator to configure the new user’s access permission
profile; i.e., which parts of the system they are allowed to access. The
functions on this window include setting the user as a Super User (supervisory
control and all-access permission), permitting access limited to individual
areas/reports, setting access capabilities as View, Update, or All, and setting
the user passwords.

To assign a function to a user, select the available function (in the left column) and click
the [ADD] button to copy it to the user functions (right column).

CAUTION

Deleting the original Super User may result in a loss of system access and
require a complete database erasure and restoration to get the system back
online. For example; the original Super User exists, and a new Super User
is created with a new Password. If the original Super User is deleted, and the
Password for the newly created Super User is lost or forgotten, there will be
no system access.
