Managing Alarm Logging
As part of the alarm calibration process, you can specify that an alarm, when triggered, be
logged to an iControl application server that has a GSM log plug-in configured for this
multiviewer. As of version 6.50 of the Kaleido-X software, alarms logged to an iControl
application server include time code information from the corresponding video signal (ATC
or VITC, depending on the signal format).
• By default, native alarms are not logged. See Enabling logging for a native alarm on
page 184.
• Virtual alarms are logged by default. See Disabling logging for a virtual alarm on
page 185. When a virtual alarm status changes, then the native sub-alarms that
triggered the change are logged even if logging is disabled for these sub-alarms.
• Global alarms are always logged. It is possible, however, to disable alarm logging for a
global alarm, by editing the corresponding plug-in from the iControl application
server’s GSM alarm browser. Refer to the iControl User Guide, for more information.
