20 • Site Manager User Manual
Name the new Group by entering it into the Group
Name field, then select the desired access level from
the Protocol Access Level drop-down list. These lev-
els are dependent on privileges that have been set in
the controller, and determine what actions the user
can perform.
Protocol Access Level: Assign an access level to
the group by using the drop-down menu:
• Supervisor: no restrictions on user privileges -ad-
ministrator level
• Advanced: has all access except administrator-level
rights
• Limited: user has the basic level of user privileges.
Can edit and add basic parameters.
• View only: user has no ability to edit or add infor-
mation
• None: no privileges have been assigned to user
Bypassing controller security: The Bypass Con-
troller Security option can allow a user to log in and
perform actions to the controller regardless of the
what security settings have been set in that controller.
When checked, the Bypass Controller Security
checkbox will bypass any security settings inside the
controller and use only the protocol settings set in the
Protocol, Username, Password table.
Security settings for Site Manager default at the
group configuration level normally. Under the Op-
tional section: If this protocol checkbox is enabled
here (at the control system level), Site Manager will
use the protocol information entered at the control
system level and bypass the information at the group
level for only the units located under this control sys-
tem.
All Privileges: Use the arrows to select which
privileges will be assigned to the Group (the privileg-
es that are assigned will be grayed out so they cannot
be assigned twice). A privilege is an activity that can
be performed in Site Manager.
