USER ACCOUNT EDITING

Summary: This procedure provides instructions to system administrators for editing user account names and passwords, and for establishing privilege levels to regulate user access to various menus.

Note: A “toggle” field type means the user can press the space bar to view and select the next option that is described; or the user can press the “R” key to view and select the previous option. An “input” field type means the user must type an entry in the field according to the parameters described. A “fixed” field is locked, and cannot be changed by the user.

Note: Edits can be made in the configuration database in one of two ways: 1) If the complete field is highlighted, use the space bar to toggle forward or the “R” key to reverse toggle through the options for that field. 2) If only the first space or the field is highlighted, type in the data that applies to that field.

Note: Edits to the configuration database can be saved after each change in one of two

ways: 1) Press an arrow key and then Enter or Return once; or 2) Press Enter or Return twice after all selections and entries are made in the screen but before leaving the screen.

Note: Press CONTROL-A for help information on moving around and editing fields.

1.Use the arrow keys to select System Administration from the Main Menu. Press Enter or Return.

2.Use the arrow keys to select Edit User Accounts from the System Administration menu. Press Enter or Return. An Edit User Accounts menu is shown in Figure 535-1.

3.Move the cursor to the User Number field. The number “1” appears. A number from 1 to 25 can be selected. The Craft Interface database allows up to twenty-five users to be entered. Use the space bar to select the user number, stopping when no user name appears on the screen.

4.Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the User Name field. Enter the user name (i.e., logon). The system allows a one character minimum and ten character maximum. Only ASCII alpha, numeric, or hyphen characters are allowed. Single word User Names in all upper or lower case are easiest to remember. If there is already a user name assigned, a new user name can be entered replacing the existing user name. This field is case-sensitive.

5.Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the Password field. A maximum of ten characters can be entered in this field. A minimum of two characters with one character being a number is required. Only ASCII alpha, numeric, or hyphen characters are allowed. At the Password field, type the password. If there is already a password assigned, a new password can be entered replacing the existing password. This field is case-sensitive.
