Create and manage users

New users are created and managed from the Users tab, part of the system's broader user management. When setting up a new user, the basic configuration covers:

User group assignment
Zone assignment

A user's assigned role determines their rights and permissions in the interface, and roles come pre-configured — see the tutorial on User roles for an overview.

Audio device and display zones and zone groups are areas where announcements can be played or visual messages and visual paging can be displayed. The assigned user zones are those that the user sees for selection in the corresponding tabs for playback. No other zones can be selected unless assigned to the user, see also tutorial on Zoning your audio and display devices.
