Instant Alarm Notification
• Immediate SMS notification : Ensure your team members
receive immediate notification of changes in alarm conditions
with SMS text messages (requires an SMS modem). Recipients
can also take immediate action and acknowledge alarms
remotely.
• Accommodate fluctuating work schedules : Create alarm noti-
fication schedules, to specify who needs to be notified of alarm
condition changes for specific time periods (for example, day
shift or night shift, alternating shift work, or 4-day work
weeks).
• Schedule system reminders : Receive automatic notification
of upcoming calibration service dates, and receive system con-
figuration alarms whenever the server system time is changed.
• Create escalating notifications : If for some reason there is no
response to a primary alarm notification, ensure subsequent
alarm notifications or more severe alarm condition noti-
fications are sent to additional team members, with multi-level
threshold templates.
Easier Setup and Configuration
• Save time installing vNet PoE devices : viewLinc can now
automatically identify newly installed vNet devices with the
viewLinc Aware Service.
• Customize measurement units : Change device-defined unit
measurement descriptions to more user-friendly terms. For
example, a relative humidity Channel could display on screen
as %RH, or a temperature Channel could read, Celsius.
• Create
Email and SMS templates: Specify whether you want
to send an SMS or Email notification for an alarm, and specify
the contents of the message.
• Quickly identify Access to Locations : With the Access Con-
trol Inspector function, you now have an easy way to determ-
ine which Users or Groups have View or higher Access to
Locations and Zones.
