This chapter provides information on how to handle alarms.

Some of the features described in this chapter can be deactivated for your user group.

You can accept a single alarm or multiple alarms for clearing or starting a workflow. 

1.

Select the desired alarm entry and click

.

2.

For returning to the Image window, click 

. 

When an alarm is accepted, several things happen simultaneously:

–

The alarm is removed from Alarm Lists of all other users.

–

If not already displayed, an Alarm Image window replaces the Live Image window on the 

monitor that has been enabled for alarms.

–

The alarm content (live video, instant playback video, or site maps) is shown in a row of 

Alarm Image panes in the Alarm Image window.

–

If there is a workflow associated with the alarm, the workflow button 

 is enabled.

You can now clear the alarm or start a workflow. If the alarm has been configured to 

"force workflow", then you must complete the workflow before you can clear the alarm. 

If an alarm changes its state (like from Active to Accepted), this appears as a new entry 

in the Event List. Hence, an alarm may have several entries in the Event List denoting the 

state transitions, but there is only one entry in the Alarm List. 

To display an alarm camera on an analog monitor:


Drag the camera image from its Alarm Image pane to an analog monitor group.

Main window > 

 > 

 tab > Select the desired alarm > 

or

Main window > 

 > 

 tab > Select the desired alarm > 

You can only comment an alarm after you have accepted it. 

A map displayed in an Alarm Image pane is optimized for display and contains only the initial 

view of the basic 

.dwf file.
