Creating Additional User Accounts on your Elemental

If you intend to pair your Elemental encoder with our system, Sardius will require you to set up an account for our system to use in order to safely control your device remotely. 

If you have not enabled User Authentication for your Elemental, please first follow the steps here: Enabling User Authentication for your Elemental.

The account you create for Sardius will need to contain:

1. Username (Login)
2. Password
3. Admin Permissions
4. API Key

To create a user account, start by accessing the Elemental's Web UI. In the menu, hover over Settings, then click Users.

1. Login: Enter a username that you can identify as a Sardius Account 
2. Password: Enter a unique password
3. Confirm Password: Re-enter that same unique password
4. Role: Select Admin
5. API Key: You can enter a custom API Key. If you leave it blank, the Elemental will create one for you.
6. When done, click Create.

Now that the account is created, locate the edit button beside the account (1). It will populate in the "edit" area above the list. Locate the API Key and copy that to a secure location (2). You will need the API Key and the Login Username for pairing this Elemental to Sardius.

When this is complete, return to Pair an Elemental.
