C624M-C (5/06) 177

The DX8000 allows one user to be able to automatically log in to the DX8000 application. The administrator must ass ign automatic login

permission to the user. Once automatic login permission is assigned to the user, the user will be automatically logged in to the DX8000

application. In this case, the assigned user does not have to enter the user name and password.

NOTE: Automatic login user permission makes the DX8000 more vulnerable because a higher level of user is logg ed in every time.

To assign automatic login permission:

1. On the DX8000 toolbar, click . The Setup dialog box opens to the Camera page.

2. Click . The User page is displayed.

3. In the Auto Login User drop-down selection box, select a user.

4. Click Apply.

The next time the DX8000 application is started, the assigned user is logged in automatically.
