User groups
The HomeServer allows you to manage user groups.
There are 16 user groups for the menu operation (Menu, Query, Visu).
There are also 16 additional user groups for access to the lists.
Yet another 16 user groups can be used for the program interface (RPC).

Access rights can be granted or prevented via the user groups.
All user groups have the same status; there is no graduation within the user groups.
The groups can be assigned names in the Project list.
A difference can still be made for access to the menu operation between "Display/Read" and "Run"
Only "access rights" are assigned for lists and RPC.

For a user to have access rights to the menu, lists or RPC, he must be assigned to the group in question. There are appropriate masks for this in the list of users (see below).

In the menu, for the lists, and for the HomeServer objects for RPC, there are appropriate screens in order to assign the user groups.

To allow access within the HomeServer at a later time, the user must be assigned to at least one user group that has also been assigned to the item.
Figuratively, you could say that the lists are placed on top of each other (i.e. of user groups and the HS item).
Access is then possible when at there is at least one agreement between them.

A user screen is shown in the following by way of example:

User:

 Menu, Visu and Query user groups
User, Access to menu, Visu and Query screen (example: head user group 1,2,3)

Examples:

Menu items should be blanked out
Example with 3 users - a maintenance department
Maintenance department has 3 members of staff
The head, can see all menu items (member of user group 1)
Electrician, can only see the menu items for electrics (member of user group 2)
Fitter, can only see the menu items for heating (member of user group 3)

User is a member of Read user group Run user group
Head 1,2,3 1,2,3
Electrician 2 2
Fitter 3 3

Menu level 1 Menu level 2 Read user group Run user group
Room 1 - 1,2,3 1,2,3
Dimmer 1 dimming value 1,2 1,2
Dimmer 1 status overload 1,2 1,2
Room temperature 1,3 1,3
Status indoor unit 1,3 1,3
