User Rank
The User Ranking structure allows the option to assign a privilege system (1-10 where one has the most rights) to users of the DVR
Software. For example: Since only one user is allowed to use the PTZ controls at any one time, an administrator with a higher rank
can kick another user out and take control of the PTZ.
The User Rank option affects:
SETUP ACCESS – Only one user can access Setup at any one time. A user with a higher rank will kick another user out and then
open Setup.
PTZ CONTROL - The DVR Software can only have 1 user using the PTZ controls at any given time. A user with a higher rank will kick
another user out and then open the PTZ controls.
