Linking Location Channels

To link an unlinked Channel to a new Location:

1

From the viewLinc desktop, choose Options | System Con-
figuration | Locations Manager

, and ensure you have created a

Location that you want linked to a Device Channel.

2

Navigate the Devices pane to locate the Channel. If you do not
see any Devices listed, check the Options filter to ensure all
Devices and Channels are visible. If you still don’t see any
Devices, contact your system administrator.

Drag the Channel (represented by the

 Channel

icon) from

the Device pane and drop it into an unlinked Location in the
Locations tree, identified with,

.

The Channel is now linked with the Location you dragged it to.

Unlinking and Relinking Location Channels

If you want to link a Channel to a different Location, or if you no
longer want a Channel associated with a particular Location, you can
unlink it using the Locations Manager.

Channels can be unlinked individually, or you can unlink all
Channels within a Zone. This option saves you time when you want
to delete a specific Zone (the monitored area may no longer require
monitoring).

For some organizations, the list of Locations and Zones is lengthy,
and the first step is to identify to which Location a Channel is
linked.
