Logging In and Out
Top 

   
Once the program starts, you will be asked to Log In with an Operator Login and Password. This is necessary to access any of the program's functions. The software initially has one operator with administrative access (able to do everything), so you can log in with the operator name "Administrator" and the password "Password". (Type them without the quotes.) Once your system is set up, these should be changed for security purposes. This is covered in detail later.

To log in, just follow these steps:
   
1. Click the Log In button on the toolbar (the key icon) or click on Log In/Out on the main menu.  
2. Type your operator login name. Don't worry about whether to use capital letters or not, it doesn't matter.  
3. Press the Enter key (or Tab key) to move to the Password field.  
4. Type your password. Again, don't worry about capitals. Note that you won't be able to see the letters you type -- they will all be shown as asterisks (*). This is for security. If you make a mistake, it's best to back up to the beginning with the Backspace key and start over.  
5. Press the Enter key (or click on the Log In button with the mouse).  

You should now be logged in. If you get an error message, you can go back and try again.

Once you're logged in, you should see more of the toolbar icons enabled (in color), and you can click on the tabs (Arrivals, Departures, etc.) to change views. The number of things enabled will depend on your access level.


Logging Out

When you want to log out of the system (to prevent others from gaining access and changing data), just open the Log In/Out dialog as above and click the Log Out button.
