Users

What you should know

  • This menu helps you create users and specify user rights.
  • A created user can log in to the ControlPanel, Virtual Sound Card, Console and/or mobile applications (Android, iPhone).
  • 2N IP Audio System uses 2 levels of authorisation – User and Administrator.
  • 2N IP Audio System uses 3 levels of user roles – user input, freeride and web scheduler.

The Users tab is used for user administration. It helps you create and delete users and change user rights (user roles).

Users Tab Layout

The figure shows the Users tab with the User settings to the right. You can define the user rights for the Console or Virtual Sound Card user connection.

  • Freeride role – the user itself defines what and where to be played. This user has the right to play without restrictions and without using pre-defined sessions. The user has access to all destinations and its broadcasting has the highest priority.
  • User input role – this user will be assigned the "home" session for broadcasting by the system administrator.
  • Web scheduler role – this user can access the Web Scheduler via the web interface.

Rights level – select the User or Administrator level. The Administrator cannot log in to the Console and Virtual Sound Card, but may use the 2N® IP Audio Control Panel software.

 

Sets of User Inputs

The system administrator defines the set of user inputs for certain sessions; refer to Audio Sources for details. These inputs can then be assigned/provided to users in the Permit user connection to set of user inputs section. This section includes a list of all sets of user inputs and helps you assign a user to an input by ticking off the option.
