Now, let's take this apart to see what each section does.
| Color | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Red | Time the event |
| occurred. |
| Blue |
| Account this occurred for and event. Alarm is when something occurs, point restore is when it goes back to normal. |
| Orange |
| The area in which this event occurred. Some locations only have one area. Others have multiple. | |
| Black | The name and number of the point in fault. This is the place in the building with the issue. Do not ignore this section. |
For motion and door alerts you will receive both a "point in alarm" notification and a "point restored" notification. "Point in alarm" indicates when the event first started and "point restored" indicates when it stopped occurring. If this time is very short (about a minute) this is most likely a false alert.
