The Alarms Tab

The Alarms tab shows you the current alarms, either in a tree format or on a device group page. Both allow you to select alarms and see their details.

The Alarm Tree

To access the Alarm Tree, click the Alarm Tree button in the Device Selection group on the Customize View menu and drag and drop it to a panel in the Primary Window.

The upper panel on the Alarms tab contains the Alarms Groups list. The list includes the All Alarm group and the rest of the alarm groups on your system. The alarms for the selected group are displayed in the tree in the lower panel.

Note: Only groups and alarms that the current user has permission to view appear in the tree.

To select an alarm, click it in the tree. If there is a camera associated with the alarm, its video will play in the Video Window. If the alarm is on the map, its icon on the map will become highlighted, showing you the alarm's location.

To search for a specific alarm, enter its ID or name in the search field and click the Search button. If found, the alarm is displayed in the tree.

Alarm Buttons

The Alarms tab can also be viewed as a device group page, showing your alarms as buttons arranged in groups. To access the device group page, click the Alarm Buttons button in the Device Selection group on the Customize View menu and drag and drop it to a panel in the Primary Window.

To select an alarm, click its button on the tab. If there is a camera associated with the alarm, its current video will play in the Video Window. If the alarm has a map icon, it will highligh, allowing you to identify the alarm position.
