GUI MAP APPLICATION
2.1
GENERAL INFORMATION
Through the User Profile dialog box (file | user profile),
administrators and installers can add, delete, or edit
user names and privilege levels. The Graphical User
Interface (GUI) utilizes three privilege levels:
Installer: Has access to all system features.
Administrator: Has the same privileges as the
installer, except for map navigation system
configuration (i.e. An administrator cannot add or
delete maps, place device icons, or change device icon
positions within the Map).
Bosch Security Systems | 02 April 2004
Operator: Cannot make changes to the system
configuration. Operators can only interface with the
system through the Map.
Default passwords for each privilege level have been
entered at the factory and are as follows:
Privilege Level
Installer
Administrator
Operator
NOTES:
1. Many of the functions described within this manual
can only be performed at the Installer privilege
level. Other users may not be able to access certain
functions or will have restricted capabilities within
those areas described.
2. All windows and dialog boxes should appear similar
to those depicted; however, due to software
upgrades and enhancements since this manual was
produced, your system may have slight functional
variations from those described within this manual.
