Visibility of Alarms and Commands
● You cannot handle events generated by field points for which you do not have
proper user privileges. Such alarms and the related commands will not be
visible to you in Event List.
● While handling events, your ability to acknowledge, reset and/or
silence/unsilence an individual field point/panel (sending an individual
command) or all the panels belonging to the same network (sending block
commands) depends on configuration.
● If you try to send block commands while an event filter is active, a message
displays asking you to remove the filter. Deactivate the filter and send the
(block) command.
● To execute Acknowledge, Reset, or Silence/Unsilence, you must have proper
user privileges, or the client station you’re working on must be the owner of the
field panel.
