Keep the following points in mind when setting up an Alarm Station for alarm callback:
• At any point during alarm callback, only one Alarm Station can have Alarm callbacks
reported at one time even if we have multiple Alarm stations configured for a unit.
Alarm Stations will be notified in the sequence that you setup (see
Stations and Priority on page 57).
• If an Alarm session is kept open in the Remote View application in any of the user
PCs, then the Alarms are reported in the Alarm session only, rather than to Alarm
Callback stations. Open Alarm sessions take the first priority (see
Priority for Alarm Notification
callbacks will go to the Alarm station.
• If you are trying to change the alarm station, then make sure that you use one of the
following two steps:
a. Update Security for the unit
reboot the unit.
b. Update Security for the unit

These values determine the number of seconds before and after an alarm that will be
included in the automatically created clip.
