Issue
- I have a site that has two workstations.
- The customer wants to use Video Monitor to display alarm video on one workstation.
- The customer wants to use Video Layouts to display alarm video on the other workstation.
- The customer does not want Video Layouts to display alarm video on the workstation that uses Video Monitor.
Environment
- Continuum
- Cyberstation
- VideoMonitor
- VideoLayout
Cause
- Each workstation has to display alarm video on one specific video display application.
- On some workstations video must only be displayed by VideoLayout.
- On other workstations video must only be displayed by VideoMonitor.
Resolution
- VideoMonitor can be disabled on a per workstation basis by editing the workstation preferences in the device editor.
- VideoLayout display cannot be suppressed on a per workstation basis.
- The work around for this is to configure separate event notifications workstations that will display point alarm video using VideoLayout on its recipient workstations, and the other event notification that will not display video on its recipient workstation.
