MANAGE CONTACTS
Your contacts are the persons available for notification by
Emergency Dispatch. Not all contacts need to be added
as Emergency Dispatch contacts. For example, you can
choose to list an adult who lives nearby, but is contacted by
the Central Monitoring Station only in the event of an alarm
when you are out of town. To manage your contacts:
1. Click Contacts on the toolbar.
2. Click Add Contact to add a new contact.
3. Click to modify a contact.
4. Click to remove a contact from the list.
RULES (ALERTS, AUTOMATIONS AND SCHEDULES)
Rules are methods for generating a variety of system actions
(such as sending an email alert or turning on a light) whenever
something happens under specific circumstances.
To manage rules, click the Rules Tab. The Rules screen
is displayed.
To add a rule, click Add Rule and determine which type of
rule you’d like to configure:
o Schedule — Actions occur regularly on specified
times, dates and date ranges without regard to
an additional event.
o Event — Actions occur when a specified event occurs
at a security zone such as a door, window, motion
detector or smoke alarm.
o Nonevent — Actions occur when an expected event
does not occur at a security zone. For example, a rule
can be to send an SMS notification if the front door
does not open between 3:30 pm and 5 pm Monday
through Friday, when the kids are expected home
from school.
