Windows NT privileges are granted to it. Factory
configuration disables both password expiration and
password changes.
NOTE
Computer user account “groups” should
not
be
confused with EDACS radio system trunked talk
groups.
The second user account — “CONSOLE” — is the
factory default account set-up for dispatcher access. This
account’s password is “CONSOLE” (all upper case;
password entry is case sensitive). During set-up at the
factory, this account is granted access to all user account
groups including the “Administrator
s
” group. Factory
configuration disables password expiration.
If console/computer access security via operating
system software configuration is required, refer to the
Administrator’s Manual and/or the Microsoft Windows NT
Workstation System Guide manual for user account
configuration details.
Automatic Vs. Manual User Log-On
The CONSOLE or any other user account may be
configured for either manual or automatic Windows NT log-
on. Basically, manual log-on requires password entry and
automatic log-on does not. The factory default configuration
is automatic log-on with the default log-on
user = CONSOLE. Refer to the Administrator’s Manual
and/or the Microsoft Windows NT Workstation System
Guide manual for additional information.
The manual method requires the user (for example: the
dispatcher), at log-on, to enter his/her user name if he/she
was not the last one to log-on and to always enter a
password. Both entries are accomplished at the standard PC
keyboard, not the dispatch (“custom”) keyboard.
A manual log-on method may not be required or desired
in certain dispatch environments since the standard PC
keyboard may not be easily accessible or, in some cases, it is
not available at all. In these cases, automatic user log-on is
required/desired.
Automatic user log-on requires no user name or
password entry—no standard PC keyboard is required for
log-on. Because no password entry is required to start
Windows NT, this method provides little security for
console/computer access. However, in most dispatch
centers, this is not an issue.
During an automatic user log-on sequence, a user may
depress the <Shift> key on the standard PC keyboard to
revert back to manual log-on. This may be necessary if, for
example, CONSOLE is the default log-on user and log-on is
automatic (factory default configuration), and an
administrator must make a system change via the
Administrator user account. The <Shift> key must be
depressed when Windows NT displays its logo. The system
will then revert back to manual log-on via the log-on dialog
box.
Monitor Video Resolution And Colors
If the console is factory-supplied with a 14-inch monitor
the factory default configuration sets video resolution to
640 x 480 pixels. If a 17-inch monitor is supplied the
factory-set resolution is 800 x 600 pixels.
To provide the best possible console application screen
displays, the console application was designed for required a
operating system color setting of 65,536 colors.
Refer to the Administrator’s Manual for additional
information on monitor resolution and color settings.
Touch-Screen Monitors
Optionally, the console may supplied with a touch-
screen monitor which allows the user to control the
console/computer by directly touching the monitor’s screen
surface with a finger or any small pointer-like object.
Basically, a touch is equivalent to a mouse point-and-click
action in the same approximate area of the screen. The
C3 Maestro console for Windows NT graphical user
interface was designed for 100% touch-screen dispatch
operability without the need of any other user input device
such as a mouse or the dispatch keyboard. In addition, since
mouse and dispatch keyboard operation is not disabled when
a touch-screen monitor is added to a console, the addition of
the touch-screen monitor adds user input redundancy to the
console. Refer to the Administrator’s Manual for additional
information.
Networking And Computer Naming
If the console will be utilized on a network, refer to the
Administrator’s Manual for applicable configuration
information. User account, computer name, network
interface card and other network-related changes may be
necessary.
Feature Licensed Options
If the console has one or more feature licensed options,
special Windows NT TCP/IP (transmission control
protocol/internet protocol) configurations are necessary
before the feature licensed option(s) will operate, even if the
PC does not have a network interface card installed within it.
Refer to the Administrator’s Manual for additional
information. Also see the section entitled “
Feature
Licensed Options
” in this manual (page 46).
