4.Click the down arrow from the Group field to open a drop-down listing of authorized groups.

5.Click on the checkbox next to the requested access rights desired for the selected user. Placing a check in these fields activates the access rights (Terminal/Admin Password Change/FTP/ HTTP/Telnet/Security Configuration). Refer to the Security tab - Add User page section on page 43 for more detailed field descriptions.

The NetLinx account can be deleted from either the Modify Group or User pages. The administrator account can not be deleted from either Modify pages and can not have it’s directory associations modified.

6.Enter the same password for the new user into both the Password and Confirm fields.

A user password is a valid character string (4 - 20 alpha-numeric characters) that is used to supplement the user name/ID in defining the potential client. The string is case sensitive and must be unique.

7.Click OK to accept and save the changes made on this tab to the Master. Pressing Cancel voids any changes made within this tab, disables the security configuration session, voids any changes made to the Master, and returns you to the empty Security tab.

8.Successful addition of the new group results in an on-screen message "User ‘XXXX’ was successfully added".
