Manage User Groups/ Users
The User Groups/Users page allows you to (1) manage the access permissions of different
user groups, (2) add users to or delete them from user groups, (3) and assign users to specific
user group. This chapter will take you through these settings.
Access Permissions
In NVR 3.0, the access permissions are managed by User Groups. User Groups defines
what functions and devices are allowed for each user. Different User Groups will have different
access rights in terms of permitted operations with each device like Live View, Playback, and
NVR server management operations like Device Setup, Schedule Setup, Event Setup and
System Setup. For example, an Administrator User is allowed for all the operations in NVR,
while a standard User may only be permitted to do Live View and Playback with limited
devices.
