Configuring Login Settings - GE Sievers 900 Series Operation And Maintenance Manual

2. Press the Edit User button.
3. Select a User ID from the list using the scroll buttons and then press OK.
4. You can modify the following User ID settings:
• User Level — Indicates the level of access the user has to various Analyzer menus. The
options in order of ascending access are Operator (default for all new User IDs),
Maintenance, Quality, and Administrator. See Figure 21 on page 124 for a menu
map that indicates the minimum User Level required to access each menu.
• User Status — Indicates whether the User ID is Active (default for all new User IDs) or
Inactive. When you set a User ID to Inactive, the user will not be able to log in to the
Analyzer, and the User ID will be deleted from memory the next time you archive (see
"Archiving User Accounts" on page 131 for more information). Note that if the user
unsuccessfully attempts to log in to the Analyzer five times, the account is
automatically set to Inactive; see "Reactivating Inactivated User Accounts" on
page 131 for more information.
• Password Expired — Indicates whether the user will be required to establish a new
Password at the next successful log in. The default for a new user is True. Change this
setting to False if you do not want to require the user to change the Password at the
next log in. This value defaults to the setting chosen for the last User ID that was
created.
Note: Require a new user to change the Password upon log in so that it will be easy to
remember and unknown to the administrator.
• Password — Press the Password button to change the Password for the selected User
ID.
5. Press the Menu button to save changes and return to the DataGuard screen.
