You can set up events from the panel to trigger actions in Security Center, using event-to-actions.

What you should know

For example, a Unit tamper event on the intrusion panel can trigger a Security Center alarm.

Procedure

  1. From the Config Tool home page, open the System task.
  2. Click the General settings view, and click the Actions page.
  3. On the Actions page, click .
  4. From the When list in the Event-to-action dialog box, select an event.
  5. In the From option, select an Intrusion detection unit or Intrusion detection area that is the source of the event.
    By default, the event-to-action occurs when Any entity triggers the event you selected.
  6. From the Action list, select an action, and enter any additional information required about the action.
    If you select the Trigger output action, you must select the output relay to trigger, and its output behavior.

  7. In the Effective option, click Always, and select a schedule when this event-to-action is active.
    If the event occurs outside of the defined schedule, then the action is not triggered. By default, the Always schedule is selected.
  8. Click Save.
