BUILT-IN USER ACCOUNTS
There are two
•Guest: The Guest account provides limited access to the system. The Guest user can view live video but cannot play back recorded video or access system configuration functions. The Guest account automatically becomes active when the system is first started and each time a user logs out. The Guest user is not a member of any group; however, a Guest retains all of the rights and privileges of the Restricted Users group, including the ability to view low security cameras. If you do not want video from a low security level camera to be viewed by the Guest user, set the security level for that camera to medium or higher.
•Admin: The Admin account has full access to the system. The Admin user can view live and playback video, access all configuration settings, add and modify users, and can perform searches and backups. The Admin user is a member of the Administrators group and cannot be removed.
