User Administration

If you log in as an Administrator, open the User Administration window to manage users and
user rights:
• Manage Users. Add or remove Users, and assign each user a Role
• Manage Rights. Change rights for user roles (Principal, Operator, or Guest)
NOTE: Only users who are Administrators can edit this window. Other users can
only view it.
To assign a role to each user, select from the list of roles in the User Administration window
(Figure 83). In this example, the Guest user is given the added right to save files.
