The system comes with a default monitoring profile defined to monitor all devices. Locations can be filtered at three
levels:
• Site.
• Node.
• Subnode.
NOTE: Any device status which is filtered from display at all workstations on the
network must also be purged from the event pool on the event manager. For more
information on event pool configuration, refer to the event manager manual.
3.1.4 Defining Monitor and Control Profiles
Monitoring and control profiles allow the operator to select what devices will be monitored and controlled by the
workstation. Each profile is defined for the specific site and application. Monitoring profiles determine what events
are seen by the workstation and control profiles select what devices are controlled by the workstation. By using
monitor and control profiles, supervision of various portions of the network can be transferred as needed based on
the schedule and needs of the site (ie. a Security workstation vs a Fire workstation).
These two types of profiles are defined by the system administrator using the tools described in the following
sections.
Monitoring Profiles
Monitoring profiles are configured event annunciation filters that block selected events from appearing on the
workstation. Filters are defined by two methods:
• Event Location.
• Event Type.
These profiles are defined using the Event Monitor Profiles Manager dialog located under the menu
Workstation Configuration, Profile Editors, Event Monitoring Profiles.
