Using Admin Software
To log on to the Admin application, user accounts other than the Administrator can be used
if they have the rights to access the site (based on Administrator). Creating such accounts
should be handled with care in high security environments.
Configuring LocalView
To configure LocalView, a user account needs the Modify Configuration right.
Switching a unit from Local User Management (the default) to Central User Management is
an option. Keep in mind:
• Changing User management is performed on a unit-by-unit basis.
• Only the Admin application can be used to set a unit to Central User Management.
• Only LocalView can be used to re-enable a unit to use Local User Management.
Creating Accounts For View
Whether user management is central or local, Admin can always be used to add accounts
for connecting to a unit from a PC running View.
Older Units
User management is not available on older Rapid Eye models such as Multi units.
Creating Accounts Using LocalView
Local User Management enables a Multi SA to create operator accounts onsite, using
LocalView, for operating that unit. When user management is set to Local in LocalView, the
list of accounts on that unit can be edited.
Creating Accounts Using Admin
In addition, a Multi SA can create Rapid Eye accounts using the Admin application while
Local User Management is enabled. These standard Rapid Eye accounts are used to
access one or many units remotely using a PC running the View application.
