Monitor the statuses and real-time events of doors under the access control panels in the system in real-time, including normal events and exceptional events (including alarm events).

1. Monitoring all:
The system will, by default, show the monitoring of all doors under the control panels within the current user’s access level. The user can monitor one (or more) door(s) by [Area], [Control panel] or [Door].
Remote Opening/Closing: involved in control on single door and all doors. In single-door control, move the cursor to the door icon, click [Remote opening/closing] in the displayed dialog box. In all current doors control, directly click [Close all current doors] in the main interface to fulfill the operation.
For remote unlock, you can self-define the open time duration in the displayed dialog box (the default unlock duration is 15s); or you can select [Enable Intraday Normal Open Time Zone], and then the intraday normal-open time segment set by the system becomes effective; furthermore, you can set the door status to normal-open, and then the door is open without time restriction (that is, the door is 24-hour open).
If you want to close the door, you must select [Disable Intraday Normal Open Time Zone] firstly to prevent door opening from other normal-open time segment enabling, and then select [Remote Closing] to fulfill the operation.
? Note: If the operations of remote opening/closing always return failure, please check the current list of devices. If there are too many offline devices, you need to check the network to ensure the operation proceed normally.
Cancel the alarm: Once an alarming door is displayed on the interface, you can hear the alarm sound. Alarm cancellation is involved in control on single door and all doors. In single-door control, move the cursor to the icon of the door, and then click [Cancel the alarm] in the displayed dialog box. In all-door control, directly click [Cancel all alarms]. If the alarm is cancelled successfully, the alarm sound is disappeared automatically.
Note: If the system reports that alarm cancellation fails, check whether too many devices in the device list are disconnected. If yes, check the network status; otherwise, you cannot operate on the system.
Upon Door Status Monitoring, if the number of doors on the current interface <=64, the system will, by default, show the doors in pictures to monitor door statuses. Once the number exceeds 64, the system will automatically list the doors.
When putting the cursor on a door, it will show relevant parameters and operations: device, door number, door name, door status, relay status and alarm type, remote opening, remote closing and cancel alarm.

Icons in different colors represent statuses as follows:

? Note: Without relay status, denotes that the current firmware does not support "detect relay status" function.
Personnel photo display:
If the Real-Time Monitoring is involved in a person, the monitor displays the personal photo (if no photo is registered, No photo displays). The event name, time and name are displayed on the personal photo.
Event monitoring:
The system automatically acquires monitored device event records, including normal access control events and exceptional access control events (including alarm events). Alarm events appear in red. Exceptional events excluding alarm events appear in orange. Normal events appear in green.

On the current event monitoring interface, the recent records are on the top, enabling the user to see without dragging the scrollbar. Meanwhile, the interface will show up to some 50 records.
2. Alarm Events:
Actually, Alarm Events indicates monitoring the alarm status of the doors. If a door sends an alarm, and the page will always display the alarm status. A door may have multiple alarm states, which represent different alarm types. In the descending severity order, the alarm types are as follows: tamper-resistant alarm > intimidation alarm (password + fingerprint) > intimidation password or finger print alarm > unexpected opening alarm > opening timeout alarm.
Note: The alarm type is displayed only when the firmware version of the device supports alarm type description.
Notification: Enter the recipient e-mail address (separate multiple addresses with semicolon (;)), and then send all door alarm records in the alarm event monitoring list to the recipient.
Cancel alarm: Select the door in alarm status, and then click [Cancel alarm] to cancel the alarm status.
Cancel all alarms: Click [Cancel all alarms] to cancel the alarm status of all doors.
The alarm event monitoring list is shown below:

3. Electro-Map
Before using the electro-map, user needs to add the map in the system first. After success adding, user can add door, camera, zoom-in, zoom-out the map (and the door on the map), etc. If the user changes the position of icon or the map, click [Save Position] to save the current position, then the user can view the setting at the next time access.

Add Map and Delete Map: User can add or delete the map as needed.
Edit Map: User can change the map name, change map or change the area it belongs to.
Adjust map (includes door): User can add a door or a camera on the map, or delete an exist one (right click the door icon or camera, and select [Remove Door]or [camera]), or adjust the map or position of the door or camera icon (by drag the door or camera icon), adjust the size of the map (click [Zoom in] or [Zoom out]or click on [Full Screen] ).
Real-time door status monitoring: Except to display the electro-map, the system can view the real-time event monitoring (same data source with door status monitoring, include alarm sound, etc.).
Door operation: Move the mouse icon to the door position, the system will automatically filter the operation according to the door status and display them on the popup menu. User can remote open or close the door, cancel alarm, and etc.
Camera Operation: Double-click the [camera icon], can be real-time preview video monitor screen.
? Note: Camera function only supports 5.2.20 or above version.
User right control:
(1) In adding process, user needs to select the belonging area for map. The area set here is relevant to the user management rights, that is, the user can only view or manage the map under his rights. If the user modify the belonging area of a map, all door on that map will be cleared, and need to add again.
(2) When the administrator add a new user, he can manage the user operation rights by role setting, such as the operation of [Save door position], [Zoom in], [Zoom out], etc.
? Notes:
(1) In map modification, the user can select to modify the map name but not the path, only need to cancel the tick before [Modify Path].
(2) The system supports to add multi door at the same time. After door adding, user needs to set the door position on the map, and click [Save] after setting.
(3) In door position modifying, especially zoom in the map, the margin of upward and leftward should be smaller than 5 pixels. The system will prompt error if the margin smaller than this value.
(4) The system recommend adding map size under 1120 pixels * 380 pixels. If the multi clients access the same server, the display effect will be differed according to the resolution of screen and the setting of the browser.
