•customer-device. Messages from a cash register, card swipe and so on, that can be sent to a Multi-Media unit.

•Multi-Media unit. For notification a Multi SA of events at the unit. Extended power outages that stop a unit can also be monitored by connecting a Multi- Media unit to an alarm panel. See 6.11: Fault Relay, on p. 6–21.

•View operator. An administrator can trace events caused by View operators, such as use of a site, and so on. Notification of such events usually matters more than video.
