If this box is checked the receiver with the loudest reception level on a maintenance
alarm will turn on its sounder for five seconds. Normally this box is not checked.
Normally this software registers with Windows to return to the Escort program if there
is any idle time, so Escort can use it to speed up its response to serial
communications and other background tasks. If checked, the software will not
register for the idle time. Normally this box is not checked. Windows NT and 2000
can show the amount of time each application (task) is taking. When this checkbox is
not checked it may appear that Escort is "hogging" the processor resources. This is
not true, because Escort is only taking the time that Windows gives it through the idle
process. To prove this, check this checkbox. The amount of time that Escort needs
will drop dramatically and Escort will continue to operate normally (same
communications responses will be slowed by several hundred milliseconds).
If checked the software will not impose the hour between buddy checks from the
same receiver. Normally this box is not checked and should not be checked for live
systems.
If checked the software will exit without asking for a password. Normally this box is
not checked.
If checked the software will not ask for a password when the user switches to another
program and then switches back to the still running Escort. Normally this box is not
checked.
If checked the software will not ask for a password after the screen saver has run.
Normally this box is not checked.
If checked the software will jump to the front when a new alarm occurs. Normally this
box is checked.
If checked the software will jump to the front when a trouble dialog pops up. Normally
this box is checked.
If checked, anytime there is an unacknowledged alarm, the siren output on the
Control Room Output indicated below will operate.
If checked, anytime there is an unacknowledged alarm, the strobe output on the
Control Room Output indicated below will operate.
If checked, anytime there is an unacknowledged alarm, the spare output on the
Control Room Output indicated below will operate.
If Escort is intended to be the only application running on this computer leave this
checkbox unchecked. This will prevent other applications from taking over the screen
co Escort will always be present. If Escort is to be run on a computer with other
applications check this box and Escort will share the computer's display like all other
Windows applications. After checking this box, stop and restart the Escort application
for this feature to take effect. This checkbox is unchecked by default.
Do not check this box in a live Security Escort System. It is for diagnostic Engineering
testing only.
These parameters are not currently used in the system. They should be left
unchecked.
