Assign a user role

User roles provide different levels of access to the DeltaV system. There are three user roles: Default, Basic Operator, Basic Configuration. In a workgroup environment, user roles use NTFS access permissions to control access to DeltaV applications and to some Windows applications. In a domain environment, user roles use NTFS access permissions plus Group Policy settings to further restrict users from Windows features.

To assign a user role, complete the following steps:

  1. Click File → New User to open the New User dialog.
  2. Click the Role drop-down list and make a selection: Default Role, Basic Operator Role, or Basic Configuration Role.
