This section explains what Matrox Monarch EDGE user accounts are and describes how to cre-
ate a user account in Control Hub.
About user accounts
User accounts are created by the environment administrator(s). User accounts are created on
specific Monarch EDGE devices that are part of an environment. For example, an environment
administrator cannot create a user without also immediately assigning that user to at least one
Monarch EDGE device.
Users can be granted the following permissions:
Administrator:
An environment administrator can create other administrators by grant-
ing a user administrator rights. Administrators can create, delete, and edit other users, as
well as do all the other actions listed below. They can also take control of other available
Monarch EDGE devices on the network, thereby becoming environment administrators
themselves. For more information on this process, see "
.
Apply changes:
This allows users to apply settings changes to Monarch EDGE devices (e.g.
change encoder settings, start/stop encoding, etc).
