Resolution
User (Read) . gives the authority to read objects, object attributes/values and view alarms.Default username/password = user/user
Field manager (Read Write) gives the authority to read and write object attributes / values, view and acknowledge alarms. The only object attribute which is possible to write is the so called default attribute, usually the value for the object. He/she may also acknowledge and change Time Charts..Default username/password = field/field
Operations manager (Change) .gives the authority to read and write object attributes/values and view, acknowledge, create and delete objects, disable and remove alarms. It also gives the authority to download/upload and perform operations for physical units. At this level it is possible to write all the object attributes for an object, not only the so called default attribute. However he/she has no access to functions that impact upon system security..Default username/password = manager/manager
System manager (Full Control) .gives the same authority as Operations manager and also the authority to change authority to units/objects and handle global objects..Default username/password = system/system
