Items separated with a slash (/): This performs a
'toggle' operation between the indicated states each
time the sensor/input is tripped.
(Force and Exit Delays)
: Exit delays means the
affected areas will get an exit delay warning rather
than arming immediately. Force (short for 'force arm')
means if a point is insecure, the area still arms, and
then the point will be reported as 'In Alarm').
Remote RTE
: Momentary unlock using the standard
duration.
Challenged RTE
: Momentary unlock using the
extended/challenged duration.
Pertaining to Bad Card/PIN
: Refer to Bad
Card/PIN under "Account-Wide Panel Settings".
Pertaining to User Count
and Area Activity: Refer
to Counting and Activity in the 'Area'
configuration topic.
Various/Other
: See the command lists at the end of
"Maps and Video (Visual Monitoring &
Status/Control)".
- Multiple Panel Command: Whether or not the
command is to affect all panels in the specific
account (versus selecting a specific panel).
Note: For area and door commands, this would
typically be used with the "All" selection. (If you select
a specific door or area number, the command will
affect that area/door number for all
panels).
- Area / Door: For area and door commands,
select the target item here.
Without Multiple Panel Command: This lists areas or
doors for each panel (in the panel-order as shown in
the 'tree').
With Multiple Panel Command
: This lists area/door
numbers (or "All"), and will affect all panels in the
account.
- Panel: For a single-panel command, select the
panel here.
-------------------------
Blue Text at the Bottom
This shows a reminder of the your selected
command, and the selected panel (if
applicable).
Tip: If a panel is NOT shown, this means the command
will affect all panels (i.e., a 'multi-panel command').
-------------------------
Notes / Attention:
Multi-panel and cross-panel commands are routed
through the Director software. As such, the source
and target panels must be communicating with the
Director software when the input/button is tripped.
Other than issuing the specific action, command-
points are monitored only for 'Tamper' conditions (re:
Transmit, Sonalert, and Siren).
Command Points are fixed as 'Supervisory'.

About Video Events
Video events are specific events pertaining to
input points and doors that have been
associated with recordings from one or two
specific camera(s). These appear with a
camera symbol on the left in the event
monitoring window.
Clicking the camera symbol allows viewing the
recording for that camera at the time of the
event. If a video that coincides with the event
is available, it will open and start playing
automatically starting at the time of the
triggering event.
Note: Playback for video events is NOT supported for
March R4 DVRs.
Video Events
Note: This tab will appear only if at least one camera is
