  • Routing Users.

If users not belonging to these groups and having not enough privileges to work either with the Cinegy Route Directory Service or Cinegy Route Control try to connect to these products, the following error message appears:

Administrators

On the "Administrators" tab, all the Cinegy Route Directory Service administrators are listed. The users of this group have privileges to administer the Cinegy Route Directory Service and work with Cinegy Route Control. When routing, all the channels locked by the administrator cannot be unlocked by users of other groups.

Note
By default, the administrator role is assigned to the local administrator of the current PC.

Routing Administrators

On the "Routing Admins" tab, all users and groups of users with the routing privileges are listed. The routing administrators control physical sources to virtual destinations routing except for the sources locked by the administrator.

Important
Refer to the Locking paragraph for information about virtual destinations locking.

Routing Users

On the "Routing Users" tab, all users and groups of users with the limited routing permissions are listed. Routing users have no privileges to work with the Cinegy Route Directory Service and can route only unlocked sources and sources locked by other routing users. All the sources locked by the superior user (either the administrator or the routing administrator) are not available for routing.
