Groups
A group contains forms that will be displayed at the device panel. Authentication can be required for a group.
By default there is a single group called the “Common Group”. If you do not configure additional groups, all devices will display the forms configured in the "Common Group". You can create additional groups and assign certain devices to them; this way even though all devices are connecting to the same server they can be used for different functions.
Groups are added and edited on the Groups tab of the Kyocera MFP (HyPAS) configuration dialog box.
- To add a group, click the Add Group button on the menu bar of the Groups tab.
- To edit an existing group, click the group, and then click the Edit button on the menu bar.
- To delete a group, click the group on the Groups tab, and then click the Delete button on the menu bar. The Common Group cannot be deleted.
- To copy or paste a copied form or menu into a group, right-click the group and click Paste.
