[Administrator] This user is given all authorities. The user name is fixed to "root". The Administrator can launch the Admin Viewer or the VB Viewer from the [Admin Viewer] link or [VB Viewer] link, respectively, on the top page. [Authorized User] Authorized users can launch the Admin Viewer from the [Admin Viewer] link on the top page if they have privileged camera control. Authorized users can no longer launch the Admin Viewer upon losing privileged camera control. However, they can still launch the VB Viewer. Launching the VB Viewer can be prohibited by disabling all authorities of a given authorized user (p. 75). [Guest User] This user can only use the following functions: Backlight compensation, snapshots, image display, audio distribution Pan/tilt/zoom camera control Digital PTZ Guest users can launch the VB Viewer from the [VB Viewer] link on the top page. The Administrator can completely prohibit all camera access from guest users by disabling all their authorities. Important • Only the [Administrator] can transmit audio from the viewer. • At any time, the [Administrator] can launch the Admin Viewer to override the camera control privileges of another instance of the Admin Viewer launched by an [Authorized User]. The Administrator can retain the camera control privileges, but doing so prevents authorized users from obtaining camera control privileges. After viewing the necessary information, the Administrator should always close the viewer or click [Obtain/Release Camera Control] to release the control privileges. • The Admin Viewer launched by the [Administrator] can access only one camera at a time. While administrator authorities are used to access the camera from a given PC, access with administrator authorities from other PCs will be not be granted. In contrast, the camera can be accessed simultaneously by multiple instances of the Admin Viewer launched by [Authorized Users] from different PCs. Take note, however, that when controlling the camera, the control privileges are given to the user who accessed the camera most recently. Note • The factory default setting gives privileged camera control to [Authorized User] as well. • If all guest user authorities are disabled, the user authentication dialog box will appear when the VB Viewer is launched. When an authorized user or administrator name and password are entered, the VB Viewer can be used with authorized user or administrator authorities, respectively.
