Chapter 2: Installation 17
Permissions
This option will allow you to configure access for a DSR unit. The DSR has
three levels of access: Administrator, User and None. Administrator access
allows you to perform administrator level commands for all channels on the
designated DSR unit. User access allows you to view and operate a channel
but you will not be able to alter administrator settings for that channel. When
permissions on a channel are made, a check will be made to determine if that
node has any levels below it. If there are, a prompt will appear asking if the
changes should be applied to all levels below the node.
NOTE: By default, all users with access to the system will have administration and user access
to every port.
Port options
You may right click on any port and bring up three options: Properties,
Rename and Permissions.
Properties
This option will allow you to enter distinguishing information such as a
description or emergency contact information pertaining to the selected port.
Rename
Use this option to change the name of the port.
Permissions
This option will allow you to configure an individual port for access. The
DSR has three levels of access: Administrator, User and None. Persons with
Administrator access may access administrator level commands for all chan-
nels in their permissions profile. Persons with User access may view and
operate a channel but can not alter administrator settings for that channel.
When permissions on a node are made, a check will be made to determine if

to every port.
