User entity
User level
Security Center uses the user level (1=highest) to determine which user has priority over the
PTZ controls of a camera when two or more users are trying to take control of the same
camera at the same time.
Priority is always given to the highest level user. If two competing users have the same user
level, it is decided on a first come first served basis.
Once a user gains control over a PTZ camera, it is locked by that user. This means no other
users can take control of that camera unless they have a higher user level. The control over
the PTZ camera is automatically relinquished after 5 seconds of inactivity.
The user level can be inherited from a parent user group. If the user has multiple parents,
the highest user level will be inherited. If the user has no parent, the lowest user level (254)
will be inherited.
Archive viewing limitation
This parameter serves to restrict the user's ability to view archived video to the last n days.
This limitation can be inherited from a parent user group. If the user has multiple parents,
the most restrictive limitation will be inherited. If the user has no parent, no restriction will
be imposed.
Remote user control
This section lists the Security Desk workstations that this user is allowed to control remotely
in order to display of entities.
Every PC monitor controlled by the Security Desk application is assigned a unique monitor
ID (displayed in the notification tray). Using a CCTV keyboard, a user can display an entity
on a remote Security Desk workstation by specifying its monitor ID, tile ID, and the logical
ID of an entity he/she wishes to display.
NOTE The Security Desk workstations available on your system are listed in the Logical ID
tab of the System entity. Select Monitors from the drop-down list to see them all. For each
Security Desk workstation, the first monitor is called A, the second monitor B, so on and so
forth.
Logon supervisor of
This section lists the users whose logons are supervised by this current user. This means that
when a user in this list needs to log on to the system, the current user must also provide his/
her username and password in order to complete the logon.
A user can have more than one logon supervisor. For more information, see “Connecting
to Security Center – Log on with supervision” in the Genetec Security Desk User Guide.
