User roles and authorisations

Introduction

You can view all settings in WebTools Express, but when you want to edit a setting a message appears. This message indicates that the setting is password protected. You must log in with a password to change a setting.

IMPORTANT

Handle and store all passwords securely and with care. In case of forgotten passwords, a service technician can reset the Key operator, System administrator, Power user passwords only when his rights have been enabled. Otherwise the machine has to be reinstalled.

NOTE
  • When the [User authentication] setting is enabled, rights and authorisation can be different. For more information, see Enable user authentication.

  • You do not need a password for daily use of the system.
