BUILT-IN USER ACCOUNTS
There are two built-in user accounts that come preconfigured on the DX8000, and they cannot be deleted or changed.
• Guest: The Guest account provides limited access to the system. The Guest user can view live video but cannot play back recorded video or
access system configuration functions. The Guest account automatically becomes active when the system is first started and each time a
user logs out. The Guest user is not a member of any group; however, Guest retains all of the rights and privileges of the Restricted Users
group with the exception of the ability to view low security cameras.
• Admin: The Admin account has full access to the system. The Admin user can view live and play back video, access all configuration
settings, add and modify users, and can perform searches and backups. The Admin user is a member of the Administrators group and
cannot be removed.
DEFINITION OF USER ACCESS LEVELS
There are four predefined user access levels or groups. User access levels range from the Administrator group to the Restricted group. By default,
the system starts up with a default Guest account. The Admin can assign automatic login for a specified user. For information about setting up
auto login, refer to Assigning Automatic Login Permission to a User on page 200.
The Guest account has Restricted user access. The following table describes the user group’s access rights.
