By default, you can shut down Axxon PSIM without entering the operator password. To prevent unauthorized shutdown of the video surveillance and audio control system, you can configure Axxon PSIM to shut down after you enter a password.

Shutdown with administrator password only

1. Go to the Programming tab in the System settings window.
2. Go to the settings panel of the Security zone.
   

   For more information about the settings panel of the Security zone, see Configuring the Security zone.

3. Set the Shutdown with administrator password checkbox.
4. Click the Apply button.

Shutdown with administrator password only is configured.

Other options for shutdown

1. Go the Users tab in the System settings window.
2. In the object tree, in the lower left part of the window, select the same-name object that corresponds to the account of operator permissions. As a result, the Main tab on the settings panel of the User permissions object opens.
3. Configure the shutdown of Axxon PSIM:
   • Clear the Allow downloading without operator password (the Users tab) and Shutdown with administrator password (the Programming tab) checkboxes to shut down with operator password only;
   • Set the Shutdown with administrator password (the Programming tab) checkbox and clear the Allow downloading without operator password (the Users tab) checkbox to shut down with operator or administrator password;
   • Clear the Allow re-registration (the Users tab) checkbox.
     In the latter case, the Run menu of the Main control panel doesn't contain the Shut Down option. This menu item appears only after you enter the administrator password in the password query window. To shut down the system, you must enter the administrator password again. Thus, we recommend additionally using the option of shutting down Axxon PSIM with the administrator password only.
4. Click the Apply button.

Configuration is complete.
