An alarm activation caused by, for example, a door being left open, an intruder alarm sounding or a device being tampered with, needs urgent operator intervention. Gallagher’s Command Centre alarm configuration routine allows system administrators to define such events as alarms.
Three items are configured for each alarm:
• Event priorities: Up to 10 priorities can be defined, eight of which can be assigned to alarms
• Alarm action plans: Specifies the actions triggered by the alarm condition
• Alarm instructions: Provides information to the operator when the alarm occurs.
