About Contact Schedules

viewLinc 4.1 Administrator Guide

57

For security purposes, it is important to change the admin

password as soon as possible (see “Editing Users and

Passwords” on page 59).
You also need to create accounts for other users, specifying

their login name, their email address and schedule (times

they should receive alarm notification), their security level,

the channels they can see, and their authentication method

(if they will use a viewLinc login or use the same login as their

Windows login).

About Contact Schedules

viewLinc allows you to set times when a particular user

receives alarm notifications. Users can be set to receive

notifications “always”, “never”, or on a schedule of times and

rotating dates (for example 07:00-19:00 on a 4 day on, 5 day

off rotation, or 08:30-17:30 on a 5 day on, 2 day off rotation).
Contact schedules are applied to user accounts, so schedule

patterns (days, hours) must be set before any can be applied

to a particular user.

To create contact schedules:

1

From

Options | System Configuration | Contact Schedules

,

click

Add Contact Schedule

.

The Contact Schedules

area becomes active.

2

From the

State

drop-down, choose

Enabled

. This allows

you to set start date, repeat days pattern, and the time

periods.
