Restriction of administration, control, and monitoring rights

If an operator is granted access to one or more tabs of the System settings window, they automatically receive the rights to administer, control, and view all system objects on these tabs.

When the operator has the rights for control functions, they can use the buttons, menu items, and other interface elements allowing to control the corresponding objects (cameras, microphones, telemetry, event viewer, and others). In addition to overall restriction of object control functions, the separate commands can be prohibited (see Limiting rights to send commands (reactions)).

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

By default, an operator can have full access to administrator, operator, and control functions of the objects with the given functions. It is possible to prohibit the operator from administering one or several objects, limit the list of available functions of object control, and also limit monitoring opportunities.

To limit operator access to the administration of certain objects of Axxon PSIM, do the following:

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

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

3. Go to the Objects tab (3). The object tree corresponds to the rights of the current Axxon PSIM operator. In the object tree, to the left of each object, there is a field that can be edited—it indicates the jperator’s rights to administer, control, and view system objects. The names of the icons correspond to the names of objects, the administration, control, and viewing of which can be available to the operator with the appropriate rights. The correspondence of the icon type to the operator’s rights is given in the table

   Icon	Icon image	Right to administer	Right to control the object	Right to view the object
   Large grey-blue flag		Yes	Yes	Yes
   Small green flag		No	Yes	Yes
   An M mark		No	No	Yes
   A cross mark X		No	No	No

   Note

   The administrative, control, or viewing rights to interface objects depend on the rights to the Computer objects. The rights to the Computer object have a higher priority. For example, if the user rights allow the administration of the Display object but prohibit the administration of the Computer object to which this Display is assigned, then a user logged on to the computer prohibited for administration will not be able to administer the Display object (see also Assigning the displays to the operator workstations).

4. After finishing the setting, click the Apply button (4).

The following hotkeys can be used for object tree control:

Expanding and collapsing the tree functions are also available when you right-click an object in the object tree (see The Expand tree function and The Collapse tree function).
