Scheduling Alarm Events
There are three types of Alarm Events:
• ALARM EVENT: This option logs the Alarm Events on the local server.
• CENTRAL STATION: This option sends a Map Alarm to SCS.
• EMERGENCY AGENT: This option sends the Alarm Event to the Emergency Agent software.
Motion can be designated as an alarm event. Often motion does not need to be treated as an Alarm event. F or example: During work
hours, motion that occurs is expected and should not be treated as an alarm. However, after business hours, any motion that occurs
could be treated as an alarm.
