Panel Comms Monitoring

The application allows the system to send notification emails concerning panel connectivity
to a list of specified recipients.
Administrators with appropriate permissions can access and assign details concerning panel
communication with the appliance.
To use panel comms monitoring:
1. Scroll over the System link. The sub-navigation menu displays.
2. From the sub-navigation menu, click Status. The Status sub-navigation menu
displays.
3. From the Status sub-navigation menu, click Panel Comms Monitoring. The Panel
Comms Monitoring page displays.
4. Select the Minimum Disconnect Time in minutes. This is the number of minutes
that a panel has to be out of contact with the IPAC Server appliance before a
notification will be sent.
5. Select the Notification Repeat Interval in minutes. This is how often additional
emails will be sent to the recipients after the initial email.
6. Enter the email addresses of the intended Recipients, using commas to separate
the individual email addresses.
7. Select a Language in which the notifications will be sent.
8. Click Save.
NOTE:
In the case of multiple panels losing communication with the
appliance, after the initial notification has been sent, any
subsequent repeat notifications will be grouped together. For

example, if you have a five panel system, if all five panels fail,
you will receive individual notifications after the allotted time.
However, when the repeat interval expires, you will receive a
single email informing you that all five of your panels remain
disconnected.
