Groups Database
User access is controlled by a system of Groups and Users. Groups are defined with certain permissions, and then users are added to those groups. Users must belong to at least one group to be able to access the system at all. The database screen is divided in to two sections: a list of groups on the left, and the settings editor on the right. List of Groups At the top of the list are tabs that may be used to organize groups. Right-clicking the tabs will display a list of tab options including creating, deleting and renaming tabs and removing selected groups from a tab. The "All" tab always contains all groups. It can not be changed, deleted or renamed. Right-clicking a group in the list will display a menu with the following options:
Settings Editor Clicking a group in the list will fill the editor with the settings for that group. Once any changes have been made to the settings, the changes must be applied or canceled before clicking a new group in the list. Group Name
This is the descriptive name for the group that will appear in the list, and on other screens that require selection of groups.
Home Screen
The home screen is the graphic, trend or schedule that will be automatically loaded and displayed every time a user in this group logs in. This can be overridden by a user with their personal settings if they have 'View Device Tree' access.
Behavior is undefined if the user is in multiple groups with different home screen settings that are not overridden by personal settings. Maximum Open Graphics
This is the maximum number of graphics users in this group will be allowed to have open at the same time. It is easy to forget to close graphics when changing screens. Setting this value low will help keep the server more responsive to multiple users.
Permissions
This is the list of functions available to users. Check each function this group of users should be able to access. There are "Check all" and "Uncheck all" buttons in the upper-right to make selecting easier.
