Multi-Media Alarm Stations
Overview
Flexibility in security
Like most Multi-Media security features, use of alarm stations is optional. A Multi-Media alarm
station can receive alarms from one Multi-Media unit or many.
Fig. 11–1. A Multi-Media Unit Can Send Alarms to a Specific PC.
Customizing a PC to be an alarm station
Admin is used to designate a PC as an alarm station. A Multi-Media unit that is set to trigger alarms
(see Events Defined, on p. 187), can be directed by your Multi-Media System Administrator (Multi
SA) to send its alarms to a designated PC.
Where we are
Your Multi SA may prefer to add an alarm station after adding:
• User accounts. Without users, only the Multi SA can use alarm stations. See
Adding an
Account, on p.
155.
• At least one site. Though a Multi SA can create alarm stations before sites, without a site an
alarm station cannot do much. See
Naming / Renaming a Site, p. 24.
