Security > User accounts
This section explains how to enable password protection and create multiple accounts.
Account management
The administrator account name is "root", which is permanent and can not be deleted. If you want to add
more accounts in the Account management window, please apply the password for the "root" account
first.
The administrator can create up to 20 user accounts.
To create a new user,
1. Click to unfold the pull-down menu. Select New user.
2. Enter the new user's name and password. Type the password identically in both text boxes.
Some, but not all special ASCII characters are supported: !, $, %, -, ., @, ^, _, and ~.
You can use them in the password combination.
The strength of your password combination is shown on the right, use the combination of alphabetic,
numeric, upper case, and lower case characters until the password strength is good enough.
3. Select the privilege level for the new user account. Click Add to enable the setting.
The privilege levels are listed below:
Administrator Full control
Operator Control DO, white-light illuminator, snapshot, and PTZ;
unable to enter the camera Configuration page.
Viewer Control DO, white-light illuminator, view, listen, PTZ, and talk through the
camera interface.
Access rights are sorted by user privilege (Administrator, Operator, and Viewer). Only administrators
can access the Configuration page. Although operators cannot access the Configuration page, they can
use the URL Commands to get and set the value of parameters. For more information, please refer to
URL Commands of the Network Camera on page 151. Viewers can only access the main page for live
viewing.
Here you also can change a user's access rights or delete user accounts.
1. Select an existing account to modify.
2. Make necessary changes and click Update or Delete to enable the setting.
