Responding to Events
Events in VxOpsCenter are reported in several locations of the UI, depending on how each alarm is
configured. Notification methods include:
l
The cell that displays the camera for which there is an event will have a flashing red inner border
and a red alarm bar at the upper left of the cell.
l
In the Content area, in the Sources list, the source item will display with a red background.
l
The Event Notifications window enables you to research, snooze, and acknowledge current
events.
l
The Event Viewer lists all events, and allows you to filter and sort the full list of events to include
only those that you want to view.
l
Recorded alarm events that are triggered by the Rules Engine will show up in the timeline. The
color indicates the type of alarm.
Using the Event Viewer
The Event Viewer lists events on the system. To use Event Viewer, see the section titled Using the Event
Viewer Plugin.
Using the Event Notifications Dialog Box
Note: This section only applies to events that are configured with notifications.
When an event occurs that is pertinent to your user account and has a notification configured, an event
notification dialog box will pop-up on your monitor and present ways in which you can respond to the
event. Event notifications requiring acknowledgment persist until you or other users with the same role
acknowledge them. Other notifications persist based on the configuration of the alarm. See the current
version of the VxToolbox section of this manual.
The events icon in the lower-right corner of your workspaces also shows the number of active events that
require your attention.
1. Access an event notification by one of the following methods:
l
Click the notification icon ( ) at the lower right of the window, and then click to select the
notification. Click again to close the list of notifications.
l
Click Event Log to open the event(s) in the Event Viewer window.
l
If there is more than one notification, click the Expand icon ( ) in the bottom left corner of the
event notification window that pops-up on your screen, and then click to select the notification
on which to act. Click the icon again, now labeled Collapse, to close the window.
The event notification includes the type of event, the severity of the event, the device (for
example, the specific camera) on which the event occurred, and the date and time of the
event.
2. (Optional) If the alarm is set with snooze enabled, click Snooze to temporarily remove the visual
notifications, but have them reappear at the preconfigured interval.
3. (Optional) Click In-Progress to indicate that you are either investigating the event or are in the
process of correcting an event condition.
4. Click Acknowledge to indicate that the event is no longer relevant; or that the event condition has
been accounted for or corrected. Acknowledging an event clears the event notification.
