Monitoring Alarms in Live Mode
Endura Mapping gives operators the ability to display the physical location of cameras, alarms, and other Endura devices throughout a facility. This spatial representation of the facility eliminates the need to memorize the location of a camera that is identified only by a number or name. While monitoring a map in Endura Mapping, operators can perform several tasks with the use of animated icons and innovative dialog boxes.
An icon on a map changes color and flashes when an alarm occurs that is related to the icon. While viewing details about an alarm, you can perform the following tasks:
•View a list of alarms associated with an icon.
•Acknowledge alarms, set alarms to snooze, and comment on alarms.
•View live video from cameras associated with the icon.
•Send video to an external monitor on the Endura System.
•Send video to a workspace in your own WS5000.
•Activate a relay.
To monitor alarms and view video, you must view maps from the Live Mode screen. While monitoring alarms, users can view flashing alarms and can click hyperlinks to switch to other maps to see more details about the alarms.
