Menu 18 - Channel Groups
The ZeroWire provides you powerful and flexible reporting capability through its
Channel feature. They are fully configurable to suit your needs by allowing you to
specify what events to report to single and multiple destinations, with multiple
levels of back up paths.
The relevant menus are:
• Channels
• Channel Groups
• Event List
When a system event occurs, it is routed to the System Event Channel Group
(Communicator\System Event Reporting\System Channels). The Channel Group
will forward the event to each of the Channels it contains. If the event is on the
Channel’s Event List, the Channel will attempt to send the event to the Channel’s
destination.
