10 Defining General Settings

C76IB003EN-E
User names are not case sensitive.
Password rules
With low security levels, giving a password is not mandatory. If you do not set a
password, users can log on by selecting their user name from the user list only.
The password must have at least one character. Allowed are characters from the
ASCII table which are letters, numbers and most special characters. The
password is case sensitive, for example "Anton Paar" or "anton paar" does make
a difference in the logon.
With high security levels (21 CFR Part 11 and "Increased Security"), giving a
password is mandatory. Passwords must have at least six characters. When
setting new passwords, the last five passwords must not be used.
Auto logon function
You can assign the auto logon function to one user in the menu
"Setup > User
Management"
.
If this user is logged on and the instrument is switched off and on again, there is
no logon procedure. All instrument functions according to user rights of the auto
logon user are freely accessible.
Example: The user "smith" belongs to the user group "Operator" and the auto
logon function is activated for him. If he switches off the instrument, anyone can
switch the instrument on and start measuring without a need to log on. Only
operator level functions are available.
10.4.2
Creating, Editing and Deleting User Accounts
You need administrator rights to create, edit or delete user accounts. Up to 50
user accounts can be created.
TIP
•
A user with a deactivated account cannot log on until he/she is activated
again.
•
A user who has no administrator rights can only change his own password.
NOTICE
If the increased security is activated, user accounts that do not comply with
the naming rules or password rules will be deactivated.
NOTICE
If the increased security is activated, auto logon will automatically be disabled
(if enabled before).
