Flexibility
Like other Multi features, use of outputs to control onsite devices is optional. Ask your Multi

You can use outputs to remotely control onsite devices such as lights, sirens, or gates
before, during, or after an alarm.

• Add the Use outputs and Live video rights to the user account (see the
Multi-Media Digital Video System Administrator

• Grant access to the site(s) assigned to the operator by their supervisor.
