Step 3 - Create user accounts
Login to the SmartView using the ADMIN account and add user profiles and
passwords for each of the system users (see section 3.4). The SmartView supports
up to 16 user profiles.
Step 4 - Add / edit names to identify your computers
Whilst you are logged into the SmartView using the ADMIN account, create names
for each of the computers that you have attached to the system. The SmartView
creates default names for each of its ports (Computer 1 to Computer 16). These
default names may be edited as required. Whilst adding the computer names you
can define which users will have access to each computer. Each computer has an
associated 8 digit port number which defines its location. If you are using a single
SmartView XPro then all the computers will have two digit port numbers (01 to 16). If
you are cascading SmartViews then each computer will have a four, six or eight digit
port number depending on the number of cascade levels that have been connected
(see section 4.10 for details). The SmartView supports up to 512 computer names
although special versions are available that support more names.
Step 5 - Set the required SETUP OPTIONS and GLOBAL PREFERENCES
Use the ADMIN account to select the required SETUP OPTIONS and GLOBAL
PREFERENCES. The SETUP OPTIONS menu is used to configure important
system operating parameters such as security mode, language, hotkeys and control
options. The GLOBAL PREFERENCES menu is used to select various timing
characteristics and other options.
3.2 Enabling password security
The SmartView XPro may be operated with or without security enabled. With no
security all users will have full administration rights and full access to all the
connected computers. For systems with several users this may not be desirable.
System security is enabled using the on-screen menu. The on-screen menu is
activated automatically when you first switch on the SmartView but may also be
selected using the keyboard hotkeys (see section 4.8) or the front panel controls
(see section 4.6).
