3.2.3 Security Preferences Screen

The Security Preferences Screen controls those aspects of the Security Escort System operation that are determined by the security director.

Turn On Outside Sounders

This checkbox is used to activate or deactivate the sirens on alert units and transponders. Some security directors prefer that all alarms be silent, others choose to employ sirens. Checking this option causes the sirens on the alert units to sound in the event of an alarm. Temporarily deactivating the sounders is necessary during maintenance.

Turn On Alarm Strobes

Checking this option causes the strobe lights on the alert units and transponders to flash in the event of an alarm.

Display Unauthorized Alarms

This checkbox determines if unauthorized alarms are displayed on the central console. Unauthorized alarms are those triggered by transmitters not currently registered in the Subscriber Database. These could be transmitters that were removed from the database because they were lost or stolen, transmitters not yet issued, or transmitters issued to subscribers at another Security Escort System. Typically, this checkbox should not be checked.

Sound Unauthorized Alarms

This checkbox determines if unauthorized alarms are to be sounded on the horns of the receivers and the sirens of the alert units and transponders. The option is not available unless the Display Unauthorized Alarms field is selected. Typically, this checkbox should not be checked.

Filter Virtual Fence

If the virtual fence option is used, check this box to reduce the number of the false alarms generated. If the box is checked, the actual alarms are delayed by the supervision period of the transmitter.
