Creating Local User
Accounts

During or after the initial configuration, you can use the default

administrator account to create up to eighteen additional local user

accounts, including other administrator accounts. These administrators

can themselves create other local administrator and user accounts. Users

without administrator privileges cannot create accounts. The library can

contain eighteen user accounts, including the default administrator

account.
To create local user accounts, you need to provide information for the

following fields:

•

User Name

— the login name of the user account you are creating.

User names are limited to 1–12 lower-case letters, numbers, and

underscores (_). For example:

john_usa

•

Password

— the unique password for the user account you are

creating. Passwords are limited to 6–16 lower-case alphanumeric

characters and can include also include underscores (_), periods (.),

pass_19

•

Privilege

— is set to either

• From the Web client, select

Setup > User Management > User

Accounts

• From the operator panel, select

Setup > User Mgmt> Create User
