Your chat first needs to be an upgraded edition before you can have chat administrators.
The upgrade process is done through your control panel by logging in at addoninteractive.com/login.php then clicking the Upgrade/Renew image/link. The Professional Plus edition is an excellent choice for the best administrative control of your chat. Once you've upgraded you will want to assign selected users of your forum to include administration powers for the chat. One would be the forum admin. I'll outline for you what to do after the upgrade.
1. Login to your chat admin at addoninteractive.com/login.php
2. Click the gears image/link for Control Panel
3. Click the Users tab then click from the table in the left Add New User
4. Register a user name (not display name) and assign them to a user group of your chat (Administrator or Super Administrator). Leave the password blank.
5. Save changes
One additional measure should be taken to secure your chat from anyone logging in as "admin". You will want to set a security URL for your chat. Click the Settings tab then the sub-link Site Integration. Click in the table to the left Security URL. Select Yes for Enable Security URL then enter the exact link where your chat is located and save changes.
