LED for Visual Alarm
To mute local Audible and/or visual alarms, press the
button to silence the local alarm ONLY.* To
perform corrective action for alarm states, do so in the ViewPoint software.
*Note: This is only possible when the sensor is in an alarm state. It cannot be used to mute future
alarms.
Muting the sensor with the
button on the device will only mute that alarm. If, after muting the
local alarm, the sensor comes back into and then goes back out of range again, then the local alarm will
be triggered again and will need to be muted again if desired.
