Employee Form - Operator Type selected on Personal tab
| • | Type - Using the Drop-Down Selection List provided, Choose the appropriate Type classification. |
| □ | Security tab - The Security Tab on the Employee Form is used to establish certain Access Rights for the Employee. |
| • | Because Operators are required to access specific Central Station Monitoring Information, the Security tab will provide the means for the System Administrator to set each applicable Employees's access rights for these functions. |
| • | If you are not logged in as a System Administrator, you will not be able to add, delete or modify the Security information nor assign access and functionality permissions shown within the Security Tab. |
| • | To establish or modify an Employee's Security and access rights, open the Employee Form, retrieve the appropriate Employee's record and enter the required information. |

| □ | Security Access (editable by Database Administrator ONLY) for Central Station Operators and/or Supervisors: |
| • | Central Station Supervisor? - Check this box to identify this Employee as a Central Station Supervisor. |
| • | There are certain tasks and procedures that require a Central Station Supervisor to actually perform, or to authorize a process. |
| ▪ | An Operator must get an Authorization prior to exiting Signal Processing from a Central Station Supervisor. |

| • | Permitted to Activate Emergency Management System - Check this box to allow the Employee to Activate Emergency Management Mode while working as a Central Station Operator or Supervisor. |
