Configuration
Almost all configuration and operational aspects of the SC5-4xIP unit are
controlled via
on-screen menu
displays.
Overall initial configuration
When setting up a new installation, the following stages are recommended:
1
Enable the general ‘Security’ option
.
With security disabled (default setting), a local or remote user attached to
the SC5-4xIP will have full and unrestricted access to all computers and all
SC5-4xIP settings. In larger installations, you are strongly recommended to
enable security and set up individual user accounts with access privileges.
2
Create an ADMIN (administration) password
.
All SC5-4xIP units have a fixed user account that cannot be deleted or
renamed, called ADMIN. If you intend to use security, then it is important to
allocate a password to the ADMIN account
.
3
Create user accounts and allocate access rights
.
Use the ADMIN account to add user profiles, passwords and access rights
for each of the system users.
4
Provide names for computers
.
When numerous computers are attached, you are strongly advised to
provide names for each, to assist with recognition.
5 Configure the required ‘
Setup Options
’ and ‘
Global Preferences
’
Use the ADMIN account to determine key SC5-4xIP settings and timing
characteristics.
