CHAPTER 5: Configuration

5.5.2. Adding User Accounts
The "Add Username" option allows you to create new accounts. Note that the Add

User function is only available when you have accessed command mode using a

password that permits Administrator Level commands. The Add User Menu can

define the following parameters for each new account:

• Username: Up to 32 characters long, and cannot include non-printable

characters. Duplicate usernames are not allowed. (Default = undefined.)

• Password: Five to sixteen characters long, and cannot include non-printable

characters. Note that passwords are case sensitive. (Default = undefined.)

• Access Level: Determines which commands this account will be allowed to

access. This option can set the access level for this account to "Administrator",

"SuperUser", "User" or "ViewOnly." For more information on Command

Access Levels, please refer to Section 5.4.1 and Section 17.2. (Default = User.)

• Port Access: Determines whether or not the account will be allowed to connect

to the serial Setup Port. (Defaults; Administrator and SuperUser = Always

Enabled, User = Disabled.)

Note:

ViewOnly level accounts cannot be granted access to the
Setup Port.

• Plug Access: Determines which outlet(s) this account will be allowed to

control. (Defaults; Administrator and SuperUser = All Plugs On, User = All

Plugs Off, ViewOnly = All Plugs Off.)

Notes:

• Administrator and SuperUser level accounts always have access

to all plugs.

• User level accounts will only have access to the plugs that are

defined via the "Plug Access" parameter.

• ViewOnly accounts are allowed to display the Plug Status Screen,

but are limited to the plugs specified by the account. ViewOnly
accounts are not allowed to invoke switching and reboot
commands.
