Company Settings Form

 

The Central Station Monitoring related Company Settings are listed below:
a.Quick Data Entry - For Central Station Monitoring module users, setting the QuickDateEntry option to True ("T") will allow access to the Quick Data Entry menu options.
b.CSID Overrides - For Central Station Monitoring module users only, the CSIDOverrides option must be set to True ("T") to enable the CSID Overrides feature.
If set to True ("T"), SPA will look for and process CSID Zone Overrides on a Zone (if it exists) prior to (and if it exists, instead of) looking for and processing a Zone as a regular CSID Zones.
If set to False ("F"), SPA will ignore any data defined in the CSID Zone Overrides tab.
c.Default Dial - When the DefaultDial option (see Personal Options) is set to True ("T"), the installed Modem performs the Auto Dial function, if set to False ("F") you will need to run the MKS Phone Interface application to handle those Auto Dial functions.
d.Override Drop Down List - For Central Station Monitoring module users only, if the OverrideDropDownList option is set to True ("T"), you may override existing Signal IDs and/or Physical Zones with a free form entry when an Operator is Placing an Account on Test.
e.Verify Zones - For Central Station Monitoring module users, if the VerifyZones option is set to True ("T"), the Unverified Zones feature and it's related Zone Test Verification Report will become available.  If set to False ("F") - regardless of whether or not any Zone Test? box is Checked on any CSID Zones Form - neither of these features will be available.
f.Poll While Alarm On Screen - The Poll While Alarm On Screen option allows the system to send an Operator or a Central Station Supervisor who is currently processing a Lower Priority Signal that was retrieved from the Alarm Stack (not received by the normal Processing method), a new, more important (Higher Priority) Signal to process.
g.VideoFiedDirectViewer - The VideoFiedDirectViewer option is Under Development.
h.Restart Action Plan from On Hold - By default, the RestartActionPlanFromOnHold option is set to False ("F").
Therefore while an Operator is Processing an Alarm, being guided by an Action Plan, and (s)he must put that Signal On Hold, when that Signal is retrieved from the Alarm Stack for further processing, it will revert to the Operator Guided Response processing methodology.
If this RestartActionPlanFromOnHold option is set to True ("T"), it will revert back to the beginning step defined in that Action Plan.

 

From time to time, as features are added to MKMS and MKMSCS, you may find additional options on the Company Settings list that are not currently documented.
Contact technical Support at Micro Key Solutions for the latest information on any new options, if required.
