28 Client Application C2631M-A (6/07)

After a connection to a remote site has been established, you must log in with a valid user name and password to access the features of the

DX8100 Series DVR.

The DX8100 comes equipped with the built-in user account, “Guest.” Each time the unit is turned on, the Guest account is automatically

activated. In addition to the Guest account, there are four other user access levels, or groups, that can be configured on the DX8100. The Guest

user is granted only limited access to the system. The other four access levels range from the Administrator group, with the most rights and

privileges, to the Restricted group, with the least rights and privileges. For more information on the rights and permissions of the user group to

which you have been assigned, refer to Definition of User Access Levels.

To operate and configure all but the most basic features of the DX8100, you must be assigned a user account other than Guest. If you have not

been assigned a user account, contact your system administrator before proceeding.

To log in to a remote site:

1. Select a remote DX8100 Series DVR site from the Site tree.

2. From the DX8100 menu bar, choose File > User Log-in.

You can also log in to a remote site by right-clicking its site name and then selecting User Log-In from the shortcut menu.

3. Enter a valid user name in the User Name field and a valid password in the Password field.

4. Click OK.

You can only log out of one server at a time. If you are logged in to multiple servers, you must log out of each server individually. Logging out of

a remote DVR does not disconnect you from that system. Logging out will return you to the Guest account. To disconnect from a remote server,

refer to Disconnecting from a Remote Site.

2. From the DX8100 menu bar, choose File > User Log-Out.
