6.5.3 Account

The Account menu allows you to configure user accounts and user groups. The camera
can support up to 18 user accounts and up to 8 groups. User accounts must be assigned
to a group and inherit permissions from user groups, but an individual user account can be
given less permissions than the group.
The camera includes a unique admin account that cannot be deleted. The admin account
is the only one that can change permissions assigned to user accounts. Accounts given
permission to access the Account menu may change the password for other accounts. Ac-
counts not given permission to access the Account menu may not change any account
passwords, including their own. It is essential to change the password of the admin ac-
count from the default to prevent unauthorized access to your camera.
You may also check Anonymous Login to allow users to connect to the camera without
entering a user name or password. Users connecting anonymously are given limited ac-
cess to the camera: they may only view live video and the Alarm list.
To create a user account:
1. Click Add User.
2. Configure the following:
