The scope of each privilege and whether it can be granted to a user is shown below.
Note
• The factory default setting gives privileged camera control to [Authorized User] as well.
• If you disable all guest user privileges, the user authentication dialog box will appear when you launch the VB Viewer. When the name
and password for an authorized user or administrator are entered, the VB Viewer can be used with authorized user or administrator
privileges, respectively.

Important
The Admin Viewer launched by an administrator can access only one camera at a time. While administrator privileges are used to
access the camera from a given computer, access with administrator privileges from other computers will not be granted.
In contrast, the camera can be accessed simultaneously by multiple instances of the Admin Viewer launched by [Authorized Users] from
different computers. Take note, however, that when controlling the camera, the control privileges are given to the user who accessed the
camera most recently.
