Before Creating User Accounts
Where we are, if using Admin software
At this point, a Multi System Administrator (Multi SA) using Admin software has:
• Obtained or created a Multi Central database (Multi db). See
Obtaining a Multi db, on p. 232.
• Created at least one site. You can still create user accounts before sites; without a site, users
will not be able to do much more than open View. Sees
Naming / Renaming a Site, on p. 24.
- and -
• Added the password to the Administrator account. Highly recommended by Honeywell, though
optional; see
Administrator Password, on p. 176.
Where we are, if using LocalView, onsite
At this point, a Multi SA using LocalView has:
• Added the password to the Administrator account. This is highly recommended by Honeywell,
though optional; see
Administrator Password, on p. 176.
What you need from your security officer
Before adding accounts, your Multi SA may need to consult your organization’s security
personnel, to find out if:
• The Multi installation will be "open" or if it needs security. See
Security Options, on p. 161.
• Operators are required to use passwords. See
User Password, p. 176.
• Operators should have different profiles in their user accounts. See Rights of User Accounts, on
p.
178.
• All operators can access Multi-Media site and operate a Multi-Media unit. See Right to Access a
Site, p.
182.
Default User
"Administrator" accounts
Admin software and LocalView each have a default, permanent account, named: “Administrator”.
These accounts cannot be removed or modified; however, Honeywell recommends that you add a
password to them, if they are in use. If very few users (1 or 2) are using the Multi-Media unit(s) in
your organization, you may not need to create other user accounts.
Admin software's remote "Administrator" account
The Administrator account in Admin software grants a remote operator access to every Rapid Eye
unit in your organization. Users of this account can also use every function in Admin and View
software. If a unit's management of accounts is "central", the Administrator account in Admin
software replaces the one in LocalView.
LocalView's local "Administrator" account
The Administrator account in LocalView grants an onsite operator access to one Rapid Eye unit in
your organization. Users of this account can also use every function in LocalView software.
