2. Create or modify the account information as follows:

a. Username: the name of this account. User names may be up to 24 characters

long, are case-sensitive, and may not contain spaces or any of these prohibited
characters: $&`:<>[ ] { }"+%@/ ; =?\^|~', Note that an account's username
cannot be changed after the account is created.

b. Administrator: if set to True, this account has Administrator-level access to the

unit, and can change any setting.

c. Control: if set to True, this account has Control-level access. (Setting

Administrator to True will automatically set Control to True as well.) Setting this
to False makes the account a View-Only account.

d. New Password: account passwords may be up to 24 characters long, are

case-sensitive, and may not contain spaces or any of these prohibited
characters: $&`:<>[ ] { }"+%@/ ; =?\^|~',

e. Verify New Password: retype the account password from (d), above. Both

fields must match for the password to be accepted.

f. Account Status: set the account to Enabled or Disabled. Disabling an account

prevents it from being used to log in, but does not delete it from the account list.

3. Click the Save button when finished.

Account Types:

Administrator: Administrator accounts (accounts with both Administrator and
Control authority set to True, as above) have full control over all available functions
and settings on the device, including the ability to modify System settings and add,
modify, or delete other users' accounts.

Control: Control accounts (accounts with only Control set to True) have control
over all settings pertaining to the device's sensors. They can add, modify, or delete
Alarms & Warning Events and notification Actions, and can change the names or
labels of the device and its sensors. Control accounts cannot modify System
settings or make changes to other users' accounts.
