How to use Mixed Mode in SCIEX OS

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Answer

In SCIEX OS you can use two different Security Modes: Integrated Mode or Mixed Mode

Integrated Mode: If the user who is currently logged on to Windows is defined as a user in the
software, then that user has access to SCIEX OS.

Mixed Mode: Users log on to Windows and the software separately. The credentials used to log
on to Windows need not be the same as the credentials used to log on to . Use this mode to
allow a group of users to log on to Windows with the same set of credentials, but require each
user to log on to the software with unique credentials. These unique credentials can be assigned
to a specified role in the same way as in Integrated mode.
If Mixed mode is selected, then the Screen Lock and Auto Logoff features are available for use.

Where to find the Security Settings? Please select the Configuration tab.



Select the User Management and add with the blue “+” all users, you like to have access to SCIEX OS.



You can add specific local or Domain Users, if PC has access to Network, or User Groups.
Note: SCIEX OS has no own User Database. It is using Windows Users names and Password afterwards for login.

If all users are added, select the Security Tab.
