, Virtual ViewX, Original WebX, or Phone
The properties described in this topic apply both to User Forms and User Pattern Forms. (User Patterns only apply to systems on which Geo SCADA Expert can create new User accounts automatically as part of an External Authentication process. For more information, see Create User Accounts from a User Pattern.)
You use the Access Type setting on the User Form (or, if applicable, the User Pattern Form) to determine which system interfaces are available to users that log on via the User account. The types of system interface are:
- ViewX—A standard ViewX,
- WebX—An Original WebX client that interacts with the system via a web browser or SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).
This setting is not required to access the system through Virtual ViewX.
- Phone—The system can be accessed via telephone. This is made possible via touch-tone dialing (when used with Envox).
To specify which of these interfaces are available to a user account:
-
Either:
- Display the relevant User Form (to define the settings that apply to an individual User account).
- Display the relevant User Pattern Form (if applicable to your system, to define the settings that Geo SCADA Expert is to apply to new User accounts that it might be triggered to create automatically at logon.)
- Select the General tab.
- Define the Access Type settings for the user account:
- Select the check boxes for the interfaces you want to make available to the user account.
- Clear the check boxes for the interfaces that are to be unavailable to the user account. Users that log on via the account will not be able to log on using the de-selected types of interface.
