Globally Disabling Alert Notifications
You can also use the Alert Profile task to temporarily disable all alert notifications associated with a 
selected Alert Profile globally. This temporarily prevents your appliance from generating any alert 
notifications associated with a selected Alert Profile until a time and date you specify. Once enabled, alert 
notifications that are associated with the selected Alert Profile will not be generated, even if an enabled 
threshold is violated. Once the specified time and date arrives alert notifications will resume normally.
To globally disable alert notifications:
1. Select the Alert Profile for which you wish to globally disable alert notifications from the Alert 
Profile window and then click Edit....
2. Select the Advanced tab.
3. Check the Globally disable alert notification check box.
4. Use the calendar control to specify the date and time of day at which alert notification functionality 
will resume.
5. Click OK to globally suspend all alert notifications from the appliance.
Note
Don’t forget that images will only be captured and included in an alert 
notification, regardless of Capture Settings, if you have checked at least one 
Cameras to Trigger check box when defining a threshold.
Note
• Disabling alert notifications prevents your appliance from automatically 
notifying you of conditions that may be hazardous to your critical assets and 
spaces. This task is designed for use only when scheduled maintenance or 
downtime would result in your appliance generating alert notifications in 
response to environmental conditions that you are aware of and are expecting 
to occur for brief periods of time.
• When alert notifications are disabled, enabled sensors in the Sensor Readings 
pane will continue to turn red to provide a visual indication that a threshold 
has been violated. 
• Disable Alert Notification settings are not persistently stored on the appliance.
• If the appliance loses power or restarts for some reason prior to the time at 
which you specified that alert notifications should resume, alert notifications 
will no longer be suspended.
