For details, look for the Language selection from the
Help menu in the "Desktop Reference".

- Permissions: This is a (previously defined)

permission-set to be associated with this
operator. This determines the features that will
be displayed and/or available when this person
is logged in.

Also See: "Operator Permissions" (to follow).

- Lockout Time (min.): This sets the duration

that the keyboard can remain untouched before
the system will automatically lock-out operator
access. (This helps to protect against
unauthorized access to the system).

Note: A selection of zero (0) will disable this feature.
Lockout Mode Details: Refer to "Exiting, Logging
Out, or Changing Operators" in the Welcome section.

- Scheduled Event Filter: This allows optionally

selecting a "scheduled event filter" (defined
previously) for this operator--to determine the
types of messages they will be able to see on
specific weekdays and time-of-day.

desktop changes by opening the View menu,
selecting Desktop Settings, and then Save.

Auto-Login to Control and Status

- Account [

...

]: When "Control and Status" is

selected in the tree for a specific account, the
operator is normally required to 'login' with a
user ID and PIN. If an account is selected here,
this operator will be automatically logged in as
the user selected below when they open
"Control & Status" for this specific account.

Tip: For a system with only one account, this
selection is automatically set for you. Note: This
selection is not supported with the default highest-
level operator ("Operator").

- User: The auto-login feature will log the

operator into "Control & Status" as the user
selected here. (Select the user-record
pertaining to this specific operator.)

Account Monitoring for Status Toolbar

- Monitor Account [

...

]: This sets the account to

be monitored by the status toolbar when this
specific operator is logged in.

This selection can also be changed at any time
through the [Monitor] button on the toolbar. Tip: For
a system with only one account, this selection is
automatically set for you.
For details on the status toolbar, refer to "Using the
Status Toolbar".
