The Commissioning Wizard initially guides the creation
of the first admin platform user. The User Accounts button is only
available on a remote controller’s Platform Administration view. You can create multiple platform administrator users (up to
20 maximum). All have the same full administrator permissions, can
create additional users, and can change the password of their own
account.
You are working in Workbench and are connected to a remote controller platform.
If you are commissioning a new unit, or a controller that
has had a cleanDist file installed, only a well-known default platform
admin account exists. Any unit with the default platform admin user
is extremely susceptible to unauthorized intrusion. Therefore, before
you can complete other commissioning tasks, the Commissioning
Wizard requires you to first replace the default platform
user account in a wizard step.
