By default, special layout display alerts from all cameras. You can limit this: alerts only from the selected layouts.

To do this:

  1. Select the layout (see Selecting a layout for editing).
  2. Open the context menu and select: Include to alarm layout.
  3. Save changes (see Exiting layout editing mode). 

Note

To undo, select:  Exclude from alarm layout.

Also, you can customize the layout with active alarms to show:

  1. An alarm and the Alarm Management option (1). If there are several alarms, the longest-standing alarm is displayed. If you classify an alarm, the next alarm is displayed.
  2. An alerted camera in Live Video mode (2).
  3. 2 additional cameras (3, 4) in Live Video mode (for example, the 2 nearest ones to the alarmed one).

Do the following:

  1. Switch to the Layout Editing mode (see Switching to layout editing mode).
  2. In the first cell, add a Dialog board (see Configure the Dialog Board) with the Alarm element and 3 buttons (green, yellow and red) without specifying a macro (1). 
  3. Leave the second cell empty (2).
  4. In the third and fourth cells, add a message panel with Related camera of linked camera (3, 4).
  5. Link cells as follows: 1 with 2,  2 with 4, 3 with 4 (see Linking cells).
  6. Save the layout.

  7. For each camera, select 2 stand-by cameras (for example, those closest to it, see The Video Camera Object).

    Note

    In cell 4, the first stand-by camera will be displayed, in cell 3 - the second.
