Alarm and Activity Monitoring
Alarm and Activity Monitoring through
the Guardall Director System
When the Guardall Director system is
connected with specific panel(s), all events
and alarms are transmitted for display in the
monitoring window, allowing the tracking of
guard tours, and to allow for various types of
report generation.
Dial up panels with dedicated external modems (one
panel per modem) can be set to automatically dial-in to
the Guardall Director system to transmit alarms or
blocks of activity messages. In other configurations, the
alarms and events are transmitted when a connection is
made with the specific panel(s)—either manually, or at
scheduled times.
Real-time monitoring (immediate reporting) through
Guardall Director requires that the software remain
connected with the specific panel(s).
Multi-Account Systems
: The monitoring window is
activated for a specific account when you double-click
the account (under [Account Folders] in the tree).
For details on activating a panel connection, and the
"Stay Connected" setting, refer to "Panel
Communications and Updates".
To set a dial-up panel to automatically transfer alarms
or blocks of activity messages, refer to the configuration
topic: "Monitoring, Paging, & Remote Mgt. Settings".
Sites Monitored through a Central-
Monitoring Station
Sites can additionally be monitored through a
dedicated central-monitoring facility. In this
case, you can set whether only the 'alarms' or
all activity is to be transmitted—on an area-by-
area basis. As well, individual sensors (input
points) and monitored panel conditions
(equipment / pseudo-points) can be set as to
the area arming states for which each
condition will be reported to the central-station
(On, Stay, and/or Off).
Monitoring Station Connection: Central monitoring is
