Account Settings Use this page to make changes to your account or password as well as setting up SubAccounts. Sub-Accounts grant other people access to pools registered to your account. To create a Sub-Account: • Select Account Settings from the left navigation bar. • Scroll down to the bottom field of the Account Settings page, called Account Management. Select the Create Sub Account link within this field. • This will take you to the Create Sub Account page. Fill in all of the required informa- tion. The account description should be meaningful to you, so that when you look at a list of sub accounts you can identify the owner of this account. • You may want to allow the person for whom this account is intended to select their own username and password. Note that they can change their password at any time, but they are stuck with the username that you give them. • You select the access privileges of the account. Select User for a full access ac- count or View Only for a limited access account. • You will be required to enter a primary email address for the sub-account. This can be changed later by the account owner. • When all of the information has been added, click the Add button at the bottom of the page. Unless you get an error message, the account has been added. You will be returned to the Dashboard page. • Select Pool Settings from the Dashboard page. Scroll down to the bottom of this page and select Manage Access. You should now see a table of all of the subaccounts created beneath your account. Make sure that the new sub-account is in the table. • The rightmost column in the table is "Account Unit Access Level". Go to the drop down box and set the desired access level for this account. Check the Notification box if you would like this sub-account to get alarm warning emails from this pool. If you do not check the box then no alarm emails will be sent to this account. • Log out of your account and log into the newly created sub-account. Verify that it is configured as you intended. 10 Local Server Setup and Verification The ACHN includes local server software which can be accessed via any PC on the same Local Area Network (LAN) as the ACHN itself. All that is required is a web browser such as Internet Explorer (there is no special application needed to connect to the ACHN). The local server provides a pool control terminal function which will allow you to control your Pro Logic or Aqua Rite Pro directly fro any PC on the same router as the ACHN. This local server functionality is independent of the Internet and the website. You do not need to have an Internet connection for this to work, but it will only work from a PC connected to the SAME router as the ACHN. While it is possible to run two instances of the local server simultaneously (on two separate PCs), it is recommended that ONLY ONE instance of the local server be active at any given time. The local server will automatically take the appearance of the pool control's interface. A sample screen of the local server for a PS-16 controller is shown below in Figure 1. Figure 1 The local server can be accessed by typing in a URL name or an IP address. Some home networks do not support using a URL to access the local server. If you find this to be true with your network, use the ACHN's IP address instead. Both techniques are shown below. Accessing the local Server using the ACHN's URL - the ACHN uses its unique Media Access Control (MAC) address to identify and access its local server. The MAC address for each ACHN is located on the bottom of each device. The MAC is a string of the form 00:23:62:00:wx:yz where "wxyz" represents a string of valid hexadecimal characters (0 - 9 and A - F are valid). To start the local server, type the ACHN's Uniform Resource Locator (URL) into your web browser's address field. The local server's URL (i.e., logical name) is the string "mypoolxyz" where the "xyz" consists of the last three digits of the ACHN's MAC address. For instance the URL of the ACHN shown in Figure 1 is "mypool319" because its MAC address ends in "319". Do not type www or any other prefix. Do not put .com or .org or anything else at the end. Just enter "mypool319" into the address field at the top of the browser as shown in Figure 2. 3
