Alarms Tab
When an alarm is triggered, such as a door is blocked open or forced entry, the
system creates an alarm record. When you select the Alarms tab, unanswered
alarms display in red and activate an alarm sound .wav file on your computers
sound system.
When you “silence” an alarm in Transactions, you are simply telling the system
that you have recognized the alarm condition. The alarm sound .wav file will stop
on your computer system for that alarm and the display color changes from red to
yellow. A log will be generated recording the time and date the alarm was si-
lenced. You can add a comment to this log to further define the incident
