2.1 System privileges (privilege levels)
A system that is based on usernames and passwords inhibits access to some functions if the user does not have the right
permissions. In this manual these permissions are called privileges. A classic example of their use is that of
preventing non-expert users from accidentally modifying the program settings. Moreover some functions and
displays are hidden if the user does not have the necessary privileges. In this way the normal use of the programme
by most users is simpler, as it only shows the functions that are used and permitted.
In RICS these privileges are organised with a hierarchical structure based on privilege levels. The lowest
privilege level is Level 0, the highest Level 5. These various privilege levels are associated to user profiles.
2.2 User profiles
User profiles allow the association of different privilege levels to different users.
Each user profile is identified by a username and a password (compulsory).
Each user profile is also associated to certain properties, amongst which the main one is the privilege level.
To access the system a user must first perform the log-in (or identification) procedure.
2.3 The log-in procedure
This can be accessed through the Main menu>Security>Login.
Input the username or chose it from the list. There is no difference between upper and lower case.
When a user profile or password is not recognised by the system a “password incorrect” message is displayed.
If the account and password are accepted, the user’s name is displayed on the status bar along with their privilege level
(Screenshot 2).

2.3.1 Log-in at installer level after the first installation of RICS
Follow the log-in procedure and specify the installer’s username and password (see Chapter 19).
Check the pre-set password table (see Chapter 19).
If the password is not accepted this means that it has already been changed. If you have forgotten the password then
contact the EVCO Help desk.
You can modify the pre-installed user profile data or add others by going to Main menu>Configure>Accounts.
This function can only be accessed by a user at administrator level or above. Default accounts are related in
the Certificate of Authenticity.
2.4 The log-off procedure
In Main menu>Security>Log Off you activate the log-off procedure, which returns the system to privilege
level 0. Nearly all functions are inaccessible at this level. Obviously RICS will continue to function and record
data.
Perform this procedure after configuring the system to protect against accidental modification of the settings.
