12.1 Preview Alarms
Click on the thumbnail icon in the Preview column to show a thumbnail snapshot image of the alarm event. Click on the expanded
thumbnail to minimize it.
To view an alarm thumbnail, the server from which the alarm was received must be connected.
Click on the disconnected icon to automatically connect to the server.
The grayscale thumbnail icon represents a thumbnail that has not yet been viewed. Click on the
icon to view the thumbnail.
The colour thumbnail icon represents a thumbnail that has been viewed, but has been minimized.
Click on the icon to open the thumbnail.
The grayscale thumbnail icon with a yellow exclamation point represents a thumbnail display
attempt where no thumbnail was currently available. For example, if the minute of video footage
was still in process of being written on the VIGIL Server system. Click on the thumbnail again after a
moment to retry the thumbnail display request.
The alarm thumbnail snapshot displays the first frame of the alarm footage.
12.2 Suppress Alarms
While an alarm is suppressed, no new notifications from the suppressed alarm will display until the alarm suppression expires or is
deleted. While the alarm is suppressed, the Suppressed Alarms title bar flashes as a reminder that there are suppressed alarms.
Right-click on an alarm received from a VIGIL
Server system and select Suppress to configure the
suppression criteria.
The Expires In fields will designate the amount of
time that alarms which meet the configured crite-
ria will continue to be suppressed. Select Never
Expires to always suppress alarms that fit the con-
figured criteria.
Click the Suppressed Alarms title bar in the Server
Alarms window to expand or collapse the Sup-
pressed Alarms list.
