Milestone XProtect Central 3.7; User’s Manual
[Time List]
Lets you select among bookmarks (you define these in the Video
Viewer window; see page 27) in order to display a still image
from a bookmarked time instead of the default preview image.
You can only use the time list when 1) video is available for the
alarm, and 2) bookmarks have been defined.
Tip: By selecting a bookmarked image, and then clicking the Use
Image button, you can make the bookmarked image appear as
the default preview image when you or other users later open
the window to view details about the alarm. This can be useful
since the preview image is otherwise an image from the time
when the alarm was triggered, which not always provides the
most interesting image. By using a bookmarked image, you have
the possibility of displaying a more relevant image instead.
Lets you use
• a bookmarked image (when available you select these in
the time list below the preview image)
- or -
• an image from a related camera (when available you
select these in the camera list below the preview image)
as the default preview image when you or other users later open
the window to view details about the alarm. This can be useful
since the preview image is otherwise an image from the time
when the alarm was triggered, which not always provides the
most interesting image. By using a bookmarked image or an
image from a related camera, you have the possibility of
displaying a more relevant image instead.
Opens a separate window in which you are able to print a report
about the alarm, including the alarm’s history as well as optional
notes.
See Printing an Alarm Report on page 26 for more information.
Clicking the New Entry button lets you manage the alarm. You
are able to ...
• Add information to the alarm history in the left part of
the window. Such information may, for example, relate
to actions you have taken.
• Hand the alarm over to somebody else by selecting a
new owner in the New Owner list.
• Change the state of the alarm (for example from New to
In progress) in the New State list.
• Change the priority of the alarm in the New Priority list.
When you make changes, the New Entry button changes to a
Save button. Remember to click the Save button to save any
changes you have made.
