Disable Alarm Table for Individual Cameras

This procedure is part of the workflow for customizing Video alarm tables.

Prerequisites

You have applied a customized alarm video alarm table to the video Management object model.

(Optional) Disable Alarm Tables for Individual Cameras

The above workflow applies the customized video alarm table to the Management object model, and so affects the operation of the video system as a whole. You cannot apply customized alarm tables to individual video objects, such as cameras. However, it is possible to disable the alarm table for an individual camera as follows.

In System Browser, select Application View.

Select Applications > Video > Cameras > [camera].

In the Object Configurator tab, open the Properties expander.

In the property list, select the Status.EventsCollector property.

Open the Alarm Configuration expander.

If the Valid: field has a blue check (flag set on instance from object model), click it so that the check becomes gray (flag overridden on instance).

In the Alarm Configuration section, select the option None.

Click Save .

The alarm table is disabled for this camera. All corresponding events from this camera will be excluded. NOTE: This does not affect camera fault events, which use a different alarm table.
