Configuration

In the Text Interface, the System Parameters menu is also used to create and manage user accounts and passwords. Note however, that when you are communicating with the unit via the Web Browser Interface, accounts and passwords are managed and created via a separate menu that is accessed by clicking on the "Users" link on the left hand side of the menu.

Text Interface: Type /F and press [Enter]. The System Parameters Menu will appear as shown in Figure 5.3.

Web Browser Interface: Click the "System Properties" link on the left hand side of the RSM Home Screen. The System Parameters menu will be displayed as shown in Figure 5.4.

The System Parameters Menus are used to define the following:

User Directory: This function is used to create, modify and delete user accounts and passwords. As discussed in Section 5.6, user accounts allow you to set the security level for each password as well as determine which ports a user will be allowed to access.

Note: The "User Directory" option does not appear in the Web Browser Interface’s System Parameters menu, and is instead, accessed via the "Users" link on the left hand side of each configuration menu.

Site ID: A text field, generally used to note the installation site or name for the RSM unit. (Up to 32 chars.; Default = undefined.)

Notes:

The Site ID cannot include double quotes.

The Site ID will be cleared if the RSM is reset to default settings.

Real Time Clock: This prompt provides access to the Real Time Clock menu, which is used to set the clock and calendar, and to enable and configure the NTP (Network Time Protocol) feature as described in Section 5.4.1.

Invalid Access Lockout: If desired, this feature can be used to automatically disable an RSM serial port after a user specified number of unsuccessful login attempts are made. For more information, please refer to Section 5.4.2.

Audit Log: Enables and configures the Audit Log feature, as described in Section 5.4.3. (Default = On - Without Syslog.)

Callback Security: Enables / configures the Callback Security Function as described in Section 5.4.4. In order for this feature to function, a Callback number must also be defined for each desired user account as described in Section 5.6.

"/PW" Command: Enables/Disables the /PW (Change Password) command. When enabled, the /PW command can be issued at the text interface by any user account in order to change that account’s password. When disabled, accounts that do not permit Supervisor commands will not be able to change passwords. (Default = Off.)
