Recipient Groups
Recipient groups define which operators are notified of scheduled actions and alarms and events. Recipients are notified through the Session
Manager. In addition, if you have associated scripts with the scheduled action or alarm or event, the scripts will be run on the recipient’s work-
station. To receive notification, an operator who is listed as a recipient must be logged in when the scheduled action or alarm or event occurs.
For information on the Session Manager, refer to the VMX300(-E) Client Operation Manual.

For example, if you create an alarm that is triggered when an exit door is opened, you might define a script that loads video from a camera cover-
ing the area around the door. When the alarm is triggered, a recipient’s workstation will automatically display video of the exit door, saving the
recipient from having to locate the source of the alarm and load the video manually.
