5.6 Group Channels
An Alarm Panel can have the authority to acknowledge all channels or a select group of
channels only.
Channels are by default not assigned to any group but can be assigned to any of the three
available groups. All Alarm Panels in a network can acknowledge unassigned channels.
To edit, the panel must be a Main Panel.
A panel can have the authority to acknowledge all channels or a select group of channels
only. This is selected in the Administration menu under "This Panel".
Channels are by default not assigned to any group but can be assigned to any of the three
available groups. All panels in a network can acknowledge unassigned channels.
Channels that are assigned to a group can only be acknowledged on panels that have
selected this group. They are in a way "protected" from acknowledging, which can be done
from select panels only.
Furthermore, if a channel is assigned to a group, then the group belonging can be visualized
in the grid/gauge view. The operator can switch this visualization on/off.
