On a User Pattern Form (as opposed to a User Form), this property is disabled, 'grayed out' and unavailable for use. This is because a User Pattern defines the settings for automatically created User accounts; it is not an actual User account itself.
You can use the User Form to enable or disable a user account. Only enabled user accounts can be used to log on to the system. If a user account is disabled (either manually via the configuration or automatically following an excessive number of failed log on attempts), users will not be able to log on via the account until the Account Enabled check box is selected again.
Disabled user accounts cannot receive alarm redirections or pager messages.
To enable or disable a user account:
- Display the User Form
- Select the General tab.
- Either:
- Enable the user account by selecting the Account Enabled check box.
Or:
- Disable the user account by clearing the Account Enabled check box.
- Save the configuration.
