Removing Devices
When a Device is removed from the viewLinc system, or transferred
to a new monitoring area, viewLinc needs to be notified to prevent
system alarms.
You may want to remove a Device when:
• a Device requires maintenance (such as recalibration)
• a Device is no longer required
• a Device needs to be disabled temporarily
To ensure consistency in monitoring, you can choose to deactivate a
Device, deactivate a Location, swap a device or permanently delete a
Location. Before you can swap a Device you must first unlink any
linked Channels.
IMPORTANT: If a Device is removed without being deactivated,
this will trigger a Communication Alarm.
