Chapter 4. Managing

Four user roles are described, and each user role has its specific functions.
• Administrator - This role provides access to the administrator functions on the Management GUI.
There is a default administrator password adm001 for the first login. The administrator password can be
changed on the Users page
• Monitor - This role allows access to library status information and does not allow access to
configuration, maintenance, or operation features. Setting a user password restricts access to status
information to only those users who know the user password. The user password can be set or changed
by the Administrator.
• Superuser - This role has same access rights as the Administrator role, except the ability to access the
Users and Remote Authentication pages. In addition, it is possible to do cartridge moves and open
magazines and I/O Stations. The Superuser password can be set or changed by the Administrator.
• Service - This role provides access to the service functions on the Management GUI. The service
password can be changed by the Administrator on the Users page.
Note: Monitor, Superuser, and Service user IDs must be enabled by the library administrator. These
accounts are disabled by default.

The Management GUI

With the Management graphical user interface (GUI), you can monitor, configure, and operate most library
functions from a web browser.
When possible, it is recommended that the Management GUI be used as the primary library interface. The
web interface provides access to more features, includes online help, and is easier to use.
Before the Management GUI can be used, you must log in and configure the library network settings with
the Operator Panel. This action can be done during Initial Setup. See "The Initial Setup process" on page
55.
Logging in with the Management GUI
1. Open a supported web browser and enter the IP address of the library in the browser's address bar.
2. Type in the user name (administrator or other administrator-created user) and the password. Click
Login.
Note: For initial login, type administrator and the password: adm001. You must change the
password after the initial login.
Note: Only one person (on Operator Panel or Management GUI) can be logged in to the library at a time.
Any time that you try to log in and another person is already logged in, a dialog box appears, asking if you
want to log off the other user.
The Library main screen on the Management GUI
