Defining Login Options for an Operator

The Miscellaneous tab allows you to define operator login and system display options:

Operator login options: you can allow or restrict an operator to log in an EntraPass workstation or server.
Active windows that can be kept on the desktop: EntraPass allows operators to keep five active windows on the desktop.
Component display options: components can be displayed with our without their physical address. The physical address can appear on the left or right of the component name.

Select the Miscellaneous tab to define parameters for the security level being defined.
In the Login restrictions section, select the appropriate login options:
- Select Allow login on server to allow the operator to log in to the EntraPass server (Primary or Redundant).
- Select Allow login on workstation to allow the operator to log in to any application in the system.
The Keep on application desktop section allows users to increase the number of active windows on the desktop. In fact, operators can open five windows at the same time: one configuration window and four windows from the other categories. EntraPass windows are classified in five categories:
- Configuration screen : this group includes all the menus that allow an operator to program the system. This group includes such menu items as: User menu (card, Badging, card access group, access level, visitor, card type; Definition menu; Group menu; Devices menu; System menu; Video menu; Custom and In/Out reports .
- Operation screen : this group includes all the Operation menu items and the Video playback option.
- Status screen: this group includes windows of the Status menu, Current recording menu and Report state menu.
- Database screen: The following menus are included in this category: Option menu (card format, authentication password, select languages, Printers options, Changes date and time, etc.); Items of the User menu (Daypass, batch operations and Import/Export CSV); View Report, Operation on In/Out, and View exported videos.
- Report screen: this group includes Quick Report, Custom and In/Out report requests and Video list windows.
  Note: These options allow operators to keep more than one window active on the desktop. They can bring to front or send to back the window they want to display, simply by pressing [ALT-F6] .
In the Components physical address section, specify how the component's physical address will be displayed. This will also affect how components will be sorted.
- Display on left —If selected, components will be sorted by their address (i.e. 01.01.01 Controller xyz).
- Display on right —If selected, components will be sorted by their component name (i.e. Controller xyz 01.01.01).
- No display —If selected, the address will not be displayed (i.e. Controller xyz) and components will be sorted by name.
In the Miscellaneous section:
- Hide card holder pin content: If selected, it offers you the ability to hide the card holder pin content from the view.
- Hide Camera from video view: If you are using the Video feature, EntraPass enables you to deny viewing permission to a specified security level.
  Note: Checking the Hide camera from video view option tells the system to verify access permission to cameras before loading a video view. For example, if the selected operator’s security level has access to a video server but not to all cameras defined in the video server and has access to the selected video view, the system will hide the camera that has been un-selected when assigning permission to the video server. For details, see Video Server Configuration.
