By default, an operator is forbidden to administer any objects. If an operator is granted access to one or more tabs of the System Settings window, he (she) automatically receives the rights to administer, control and view all system objects on these tabs.

When the operator has the rights for control functions, he (she) can use the buttons, menu items and other interface elements allowing to control the corresponding objects (cameras, microphones, telemetry, event viewer, etc).

Viewing functions allow the operator to view the interface components (user screens, surveillance monitors, Backup archive window, microphone indicators, etc.).

By default, operator can have a full access to administrator, operator and control functions of the objects with the given functions.  It is possible to ban the operator to administer one or several objects, limit the list of available functions of object control and also limit monitor opportunities.

Note

If the administrator password is not set (see Administrator password registration) and the access to the required tabs of the System settings dialog window is limited (see Limiting access to the tabs of the System Settings window), then the limitation of the object configuraion rights will not be available.

To limit operator access to the administration of certain objects of Intellect program software do the following:

  1. Open the Users tab in the System Settings window (1).

  2. Open the required User permissions object in the objects tree under the User permissions button (2).
    The settings panel for this object opens at the right side of the System Settings window.

    The tree in the lower part of the settings panel represent the rights of the current operator. Checkboxes to the left of the objects indicate and allow changing the administrative, control or viewing rights for these objects. The components of the tree represent the system objects which the current user can administer according to his (her) rights’ settings. Name of marks corresponds to object names, which administration, control and monitoring may be accessible to Operator with proper rights (3).
    Correspondence of mark type to Operator rights is given in the table.
