8-CLOUD SERVICE ACTIVATION AND MANAGEMENT
To use the MyAlarm3 Cloud monitoring system, it is necessary to register
a SENECA Cloud account and activate the dedicated service.
Preliminary information: in this chapter the concepts of account, service,
owner and user are explained.
ACCOUNT: is an individual registered in the Seneca Cloud and identied
with name, surname and email.
SERVICE: is the MyAlarm3 Cloud device registered in the Seneca Cloud.
OWNER: is the account that activates and manages the individual
MyAlarm3 Cloud service owned and managed by it.
USER: is the account that can use the single MyAlarm3 Cloud service
after receiving the invitation from the owner of the service.
Each activated Service (therefore each MyAlarm3 Cloud) is managed only
by the "OWNER ACCOUNT", which also has full responsibility for it, while
several "USER ACCOUNTS" can use the individual service after receiving
the invitation from the "OWNER ACCOUNT".
The "OWNER ACCOUNT" can either invite other "USER ACCOUNTS"
to use its MyAlarm3 Cloud as guest users, or be invited by other owner
accounts to use their MyAlarm3 Cloud as a guest user.
The "USER ACCOUNT" is the guest user of MyAlarm3 Cloud not owned
by him after the invitation to use by the respective "OWNER ACCOUNTS".
It is not necessary to have a MyAlarm3 Cloud to register in the Seneca
Cloud and be invited by an "OWNER ACCOUNT".
In this way, it is possible to create cross eets of MyAlarm3 Clouds with
owners of one or more devices, individual users of a device and system
maintainers with access to groups of systems consisting of multiple
MyAlarm3 Cloud devices.
Some examples are shown on the opposite page:

Example 1: three “OWNER ACCOUNTS” manage just their devices:
Control unit 1 Control unit 2 Control unit 3
