Event Profiles

An event profile controls the arming and disarming of various alarm groups at a specific time. Event profiles are managed in a tabular view where they can be edited and new profiles can be created.

note

Arming a group activates the evaluation of arm-active alarms. This is used, for example, to implement a motion alarm in an area only outside working hours.

note

Example: No motion alarm should be triggered during working hours. For this purpose, the area is grouped into an alarm group in the Detail View and a corresponding event profile is assigned to this alarm group, in which the arming and disarming times have been stored.

Overview​

In the main view, all available event profiles are displayed in a table. Here you can:

  • Create new event profiles via the "New Event Profile" button
  • Edit existing profiles by clicking on them
  • Manage and organize profiles

The table shows the name and type of the event profiles. New event profiles can be added via the + symbol.

Event Profile Configuration​

Basic Configuration​

When creating or editing an event profile, the following options are available:

Name

  • Assign a unique name for the event profile
  • The name should reflect the purpose of use (e.g. "Disarm on Weekdays")

Groups

  • Select the alarm groups to which this event profile should be applied
  • Multiple groups can be selected simultaneously

Calendar View​

The calendar view offers two display options:

Week View

  • Shows all weekdays (Monday to Sunday) in columns
  • Events are displayed as colored bars
  • Red bars: Arming
  • Green bars: Disarming

Timeline View

  • Detailed hourly view from 03:00 to 24:00
  • Precise time points for events are visible
  • Switch between views via the buttons at the top

Event Creation​

The following configuration options are available for creating new events:

Action

  • Arming: Activates monitoring of the alarm group
  • Disarming: Deactivates monitoring of the alarm group
  • Acknowledge: Acknowledges active alarms of the alarm group

Time

  • Input of the exact time in HH:MM format
  • Use of the time selection field or manual input possible

Weekdays

  • Selection of weekdays via buttons (Mo, Tu, We, Th, Fr, Sa, Su)
  • Multiple weekdays can be selected simultaneously
  • Blue marking shows active selection

Do not catch up event

  • Optional: Checkbox to configure catch-up behavior
  • Determines whether missed events should be executed later
warning

Multiple identical events cannot be created at the same time. For example, within an event profile, disarming cannot occur twice on Monday morning at 7:00 AM.

Event Management​

Events such as arming, disarming and acknowledging are assigned to the event profile. Arming and disarming refer to alarm groups and acknowledging refers to acknowledgeable alarms of an alarm group.

Each event is additionally assigned a time point and one or more weekdays. This way, an event profile can contain any number of events.

Modifying and Deleting Events​

  • Existing events can be edited by clicking on them
  • Configuration is done via the same fields as during creation
  • Events can be deleted via the corresponding interface
