Master Control
Software Configuration
For each panel, configure following parameters:
•
Channel acquisition priority:
The panel’s priority (i.e., permission level) is an integer number from 1 to 255, where higher
numbers represent higher authority. Panels with higher priority may preempt panels with
lesser priority. Priority levels apply only to the ‘Allows kick’ setting.
•
Allows kicking:
The panel’s ‘Allows Kicking’ parameter determines how other panels are allowed to take
ownership away from this panel when it has ownership of a channel.
There are 4 levels you can select:
Never
By higher priority panels only
By same or higher priority panels
Always
A common scenario is where most panels are “normal” and are set to the same priority level
with ‘Allows Kicking’ from higher priority panels only. Thus, normal panel operators cannot
take channel ownership from one another, but a supervisor with a higher priority panel can
acquire ownership of any channel.
•
Allow sharing:
The panel’s ‘Allow Sharing’ flag determines whether this panel is allowed to share channels
with other panels. Imagestore 750s will allow sharing only when all acquiring panels have
the ‘allows sharing’ flag set on. If the owning panel does not allow sharing, then no other
panel will be able to share the channel, whatever its priority.
Imagestore 750s can enforce ‘Allows Kicking’ and ‘Allow Sharing’ settings on panels of
lower priority. That is discussed in Channel Permissions Configuration, next.
