6. Make your desired selections.
Enable Authorization - Whether or not to enable authorization. If authorization is enabled, anyone
logging in through EA3 (both local and enterprise users) must have a role. Anyone without a role will
be denied access if authorization is turned on. Note that the role the user has doesn't matter for log-
ging into EA3 (however, some other EA3 client applications can decide which roles can login)
Emergency Logon Allowed - Whether or not to allow emergency access. If EA3 is used in GUI mode,
this decides whether or not to display the Emergency login button. If this is disabled, emergency user
access is prevented.
Emergency Roles - The roles assigned to the emergency user. The defaults allow an admin to assign a
Standard user role, Limited User role, or both roles.
Inactivity Timeout (minutes) - The amount of time (in minutes) that must elapse without any mouse/
keyboard, etc. activity before a timeout is generated. When a timeout is generated, the EA3 logon
screen is displayed. This value can be any positive integer, or it can be 0. If the value is 0, this indicates
NO inactivity timeout (there will never be a timeout event regardless of how much time has elapsed).
Display Last Logon Name - Whether or not to display the username of the last user that has logged in
on the EA3 logon screen.
Administrator Message - Under certain circumstances / error conditions, the user of EA3 is asked to
contact an administrator. This field allows the administrator to specify contact details for himself /
herself and a custom message.
