3 Using Security

Before you begin to configure your library, you should set up the security feature of the Spectra 12000 library.

The Spectra 12000 library has a security feature that allows for three types of users:

￿Super User—A Super User is allowed ultimate control of the library and controls who has access to the library.

￿Administrator—An Administrator is allowed control of the library, but cannot control who has access to the library.

￿Operator—An Operator is allowed only limited access to the library. The Operator can move, remove and add inventory via the Entry/Exit port, but is denied access to more sensitive areas of the library, such as configuration and diagnostics.

Setting Up Security

Before you set up security, determine who is going to be allowed access to the library, and what level of security that user will have.

To Set Up a User

1.On the Library Controller, tap Toolbars and then tap Security. The Security toolbar displays.
