Alarm Input/Output 
 
Alarm input and alarm output ports are used for alarm action purposes, and although each 
has a specific function, both are configured within this section. Although the system 
controller operator must control the I/O ports by logical number, these ports are viewable 
within MPU955 Admin Console by both ID and logical port numbers.  
 
Each encoder supplies 8 ports – 4 are input ports, 4 are output ports.  Because of this, 4 
consecutive IDs must be configured...

 A l a r m I/O PORTS – Definition 
Field Data 
ID Unique record ID assigned by MPU955 Admin Console as an I/O port is added, in order to identify the 
port to the system. 
MPU955 Admin Console automatically generates this number in consecutive order.  Upon adding I/O 
ports, the system will automatically assign the next available number. 
Component ID and sequence ID numbers are used primarily in the permission tabs to identify one 
component or sequence from another in row and...

Monitors 
 
Monitors are generally viewed within MPU955 Admin Console by ID number, but can be 
viewed by area\local number, since the user will operate the NSS by selecting a monitor 
by local number within a specific area.   
 
Area\local numbers are displayed in MPU955 Admin Console as one whole number.  The 
four right-most digits represent the local number and the left-most one or two digits will 
represent the area.  For example, 10034 represents area 1 and local number 34,...

references to other sections that the monitor will influence. 
 
When changing the Monitor Surveillance Area (MSA) of a monitor, make 
sure that any affected presets or alarm action target assignments are within the 
same area. 
 
 
Deleting a monitor will automatically delete the referenced 
permissions, but will not
 change any other references, such as 
sequences, presets, etc.

Operators  
 
Class Setup 
 
An operator is one who accesses the system via a system controller, selects resources, and 
controls selected system resources, such as cameras, monitors, sequences, etc. 
 
Before an operator can be defined, an operator class needs to be created. 
 
An operator class defines which functions an operator or groups of operators have 
privileges to perform. 
 
1. Select the Operators command from the Component menu, and then select 
Class Setup

creating

 camera in the system is locked.  
Other users can select cameras normally, but cannot control them. 
 
Operators with the CAM Lock Override privilege can override locked 
cameras on a...
