Matching Areas: If selected, this operator will

Auto-Login to Control and Status 
- Account [ ... ]: When "Control and Status" is 
selected in the tree for a specific account, the 
operator is normally required to 'login' with a 
user

this operator will be automatically logged in as 
the user selected below when they open 
"Control & Status" for this specific account. 
Tip: For a system with only one account, this 
selection is automatically set for you. Note
: This 
selection is not supported with the default highest-
level operator ("Operator"). 
- User: The auto-login feature will log the 
operator into "Control & Status" as the user 
selected here. (Select the user-record 
pertaining to this specific operator.) 
Account Monitoring for Status Toolbar 
- Monitor Account [ ... ]: This sets the account to 
be monitored by the status toolbar when this 
specific operator is logged in. 
This selection can also be changed at any time 
through the [Monitor] button on the toolbar. Tip: For 
a system with only one account, this selection is 
automatically set for you.
