Viewing active events
If there are any active events, that is, at least one condition worthy of note has been detected in the system and is
currently active, the display stand-by screen (
paragraph 3.3
) will be replaced by a screen which provides the respective
notification.
The screen will show the active events on the system
grouped in categories. The various categories are
represented by the icons at the top
[A]
which are enabled
when events occur and show below the number of events
of the currently active type
[B]
.
Touching any one of these buttons allows you to view all
the events in the associated category. The events are listed
in a chronological order
[C]
and can be scrolled with the
arrow keys.
By selecting with a touch an event generated by a loop
device, you will access the management page of the device
itself (refer to
paragraph 6.2 Device management
).
Icons for categories for which there are currently no active events do not appear.
After 30 seconds of inactivity the screen will automatically go to the screen containing the category of events with the
highest priority. The priority is shown in the following list:
