Control Panel

Introduction

The GBS Control Panel is an application developed to easily change the GBDS configuration parameters. The Control Panel provides a visual interface where the user controls the parameter values and compares the current values with historical configuration values.

This manual is updated for GBS Control Panel version 1.3.1.

Access and Authentication

You must access the Control Panel with a browser, and Google Chrome is recommended. The access URL is specific to each deployment. If necessary, contact Griaule support to obtain the correct URL for your environment.

Authentication is required to access the application. The credentials required for the Control Panel are username and password.

At the bottom of the screen, an option to change the language is presented. This option is also available in the settings after login.

Simultaneous Logins and Browser Registration

Only one session per user is allowed. It is not possible to log in simultaneously with the same profile more than once in the application. If a user is already connected and another access occurs using the same username and password, the user with the older session will be notified and disconnected on the next action.

Additionally, only one browser can be used at a time. When attempting to log in using a different browser, the user will be informed that it is necessary to authenticate the new browser. Authenticating a new browser will revoke access from the previous browser.

To authenticate a new browser, click Authenticate and then enter the verification code that will be sent to the email associated with the user's account.

If authentication is successful, a notification will appear in the upper right corner of the screen after login.

Reset Password

You can reset your password if you forget it.

To reset your password, on the login screen, click Forgot your password?:

Then enter the profile username and click Submit.

An email containing a verification code will be sent to the email address associated with that profile. Enter the verification code and click Submit code.

If the code is correct, you will be able to create a new password. Enter the new password twice. Make sure to meet the password requirements, they are listed below the new password field and will turn green when met. Finally, to confirm the reset, click Reset password.
