    1. The admin mode should be used when the XData grading tool is intended to be used with direct login of users without interfacing with a Learning Management System (LMS). The admin mode allows creation of courses and users. It also allows assigning roles(instructor or student) to users for one or more courses. If you are using XData through an LMS, the admin set-up is not required as courses are created and users are created automatically when interfacing with LMS.
    2. Connect to the XData server using the URL http://<host-url>/XDataWeb, and login with the username as admin and the password set during installation.
    3. The admin will be redirected to the welcome screen with administrator menu. The Admin should follow the following steps.
