The Alarm Message List
At the top of the Alarm List window, under
Visible Alarms, you may select one of three
alarm message lists to display.
•
All – F3
: Display all current alarm and
trouble messages received.
•
Disabled – F4
: Display alarm
messages that have been disabled.
When any messages are listed in the
Disabled list, “Disabled – F4” appears
in blue text in the Alarm List window
to inform you of the disabled alarms.
To remove an alarm message from the
Disabled list and place it back in the
Alarm List, select that alarm message
in the Disabled list and click on the
Enable button or press the F12 key.
Note: When you disable a message, System Link does not provide any further
notices of that particular alarm or trouble from that panel, but the counter in the
Repeat column continues to track the number of incoming alarm messages. Only
disable a message in the case of a known mechanical fault, such as a defective
sensor that is sending runaway signals.
•
Non-restored – Alt-F3
: Display a list of non-restored alarms. Non-restored
messages indicate that the zone that originated the alarm must be restored to
normal.
Managing Your Alarm Messages
The Alarm List displays specific information for each alarm message.
•
Account:
The account number of the panel that sent the alarm message.
•
Message:
A message with detailed information on the alarm signal. The different
types of alarm signals are detailed in the section Sorting of Alarm Messages. The
message column displays the following information for alarm signals:
°
Zone Type:
What type of zone (Fire, Burglary, Panic, etc.) caused the signal.
°
Zone Number
or
Report Identifier:
The zone number. If the signal does not
contain a zone number, a report identifier displays (Warning, Alert, etc.).
°
Area Number and Name:
The area number and name is displayed if an area
is associated with the alarm message.
°
Report Type:
The type of signal (Alarm, Trouble, etc.)
°
No Account Record:
When a signal is received from an account that has not
been entered in the database, “No Account Record” displays in the Message
field.
°
Non-Restored Status:
When a signal is received without a restoral signal, a
“Not restored” appears in the Message field. Non-restored signals are placed in
the Non-Restored alarm list.
When the restoral signal is received, the “Not restored” message is
automatically removed and the message is removed from the Non-Restored
alarm list.
