The first dialog you will see when you open the application will be the login dialogue. This dialog contains the relevant FusionReactor details are needed to login to the FusionReactor application:
Server, User Type and Password.
First, choose the server that you wish to connect to. For example, if you are accessing an internal server on a local machine over port 8088 then your URL may look like this: http://127.0.0.1:8088/fusionreactor
Select the user type you wish to login as from the combo box. There are three types (or levels) of users supported: Administrator, Managers and Observers.
Note that if you did not enter passwords for the Manager or Observer users during the installation of FusionReactor, then these accounts are disabled and you will be unable to login as these types of users.
Lastly enter the password relevant to the server you are trying to connect to (the password entered during the FusionReactor installation).
Once the required login information has been entered, press the "Submit" button to login and use the application.
