Adding a New User
When adding a new user to the 8380 RPC system, all user parameters (user name,
password, and privilege) must be added. The maximum number of users is 24.
Removing a User
To remove a user from the 8380 RPC system, with the user number selected,
select Remove from the Privilege dropdown box. Note that removing a user clears
their information from the master device and will result in the master automatically
deactivating all ports associated with the user.
User Name
User names support up to 12 characters and must be at least one character to be
considered valid. Note that certain characters ( ', ", and \) cannot be used. If a user
name containing errors is submitted, the 8380 RPC will reject the changes and display a
message indicating the error.
Password
For security purposes when entering the password, the field only displays an asterisk (*)
instead of the typed characters.
Passwords support up to 12 characters and must be at least one character to be
considered valid. Note that certain characters ( ', ", and \) cannot be used. If a password
containing errors is submitted, the 8380 RPC will reject the changes and display a
message indicating the error.
Privilege
The user's Privilege can be set to Administrator or Field User by selecting the
corresponding setting from the dropdown list. Selecting Remove will remove the user
from the active users for the 8380 RPC system.
Note that the current user cannot modify their own privileges and User Number 1
(Default User) must always have its privilege set to Administrator. This ensures that
there is always at least one administrator for the 8380 RPC system.
There is no upper limit to the number of administrators and/or field users that can
be present simultaneously. For example, there is no reason why all users could not
have administrative privilege. The maximum number of users is 24 regardless of their
privilege.
