Destination Channel Grouping Overview
Destination Channel Grouping establishes the linking of channels with specific destinations or devices. The feature is available within Alarmware™ only.
- When a particular channel goes into alarm, only the destinations linked to that channel will receive alarm notification reports.
- By factory default, all channels are linked to all destinations and devices until configured otherwise by the user.
- Destination Channel Grouping is typically configured when certain channels are associated with a specific category of personnel, such as electrical, plumbing, security, etc.
- Another use would be to configure selected channels to be linked to a Log File Device when channel sampling is configured. This will define which channels are to be included in the samples saved to the Log File.
Note: Power Failure alarms and some kinds of Communications Failure alarms will bypass Destination Channel Grouping and will cause alarm reports to all destinations, beginning with the lowest Destination number first.
