Camera management
This chapter describes how to use the camera’s web browser interface to manage
users, configure security settings, and perform camera maintenance.
User management
This section describes how to:
Add or delete users
Modify permissions
Modify passwords
Only the administrator can manage users. The administrator can create up to 31
individual users for the cameras listed in this manual (see “Introduction” on page 2).
When new users are added to the list, the administrator can modify the permissions
and passwords for each user.
Passwords limit access to the camera and the same password can be used by several
users. When creating a new user, the user must be assigned a password. There is no
default password provided for all users. Users can modify their passwords after they
have been assigned.
Note
: Keep the admin password in a safe place. Contact technical support if the
password is forgotten.
Types of users
A user’s access privileges to the system are automatically defined by their user type.
There are three types of users:
Admin
: This is the system administrator. The administrator can configure all
settings. Only the administrator can create and delete user accounts. Admin cannot
be deleted.
Operator
: This user can only change the configuration of his/her own account. An
operator cannot create or delete other users.
