3.3.8 Control Profiles
Control profiles allow users with sufficient privileges to select which network and nodes will be controlled by a
workstation. Control profiles enable the right-click menu options (enabled, disable, arm, disarm, etc.) on point icons
and on events in the event boxes. A profile can be defined for either a network or a single node.
A remote node can only accept a command or acknowledgment from a workstation which controls it. When a user
acknowledges an event from a workstation that does not control the node where the off-normal device resides, the
event is acknowledged at that workstation only.
Only one workstation at a time may control a given node. Taking control of a node from one workstation
automatically cancels control of that node at any other workstation.
A fire network may be monitored by multiple workstations, each of which controls only a portion of the nodes on the
network. This is often the most feasible solution for monitoring large networks
