Key Facts

Flexibility

If one user, or very few are operating the Multi-Media unit(s) in your organization, you may not need to create user accounts. See Default User, on p. 152. However, in organizations with many Rapid Eye users or units, Honeywell recommends creating user accounts for unit operators.

Account users operate Multi-Media units

It can be more accurate to refer to account users as “unit operators”; a Multi SA creates accounts so that personnel can operate units. Accounts created using LocalView can be used only onsite at the site that they were created. Accounts created using Admin are generally used to run View software on a PC, to connect to one or many units, over a LAN or using dial-up.

Administrator account

To run Admin software, use the Administrator account. Use of Admin and the Administrator account should be reserved for use by your organization's Multi SA. Reasons for doing so are explained in Limiting the Use of Admin, on p. 163. The default Administrator account can also be used to run View software, to configure units, by using a Maintenance Session.

System password

The system password is not used by users. Authorized users do not need to know and should not know the system password. It protects units from Admin and View users in other organizations. See System Password, p. 166.

Using LocalView only

Multi SAs have the option of creating user accounts onsite, using LocalView, on a unit-by-unit basis. This is convenient when your organization has only one unit, or very few and few users. See User Management, p. 153.
