Shutting Down the MONITOR AFx
Director Software
To shut down the MONITOR AFx Director
software, click the
X
in the extreme upper-right
corner of the MONITOR AFx Director screen
(or open the
F
ile menu, and select
E
xit).
Tip:
If you changed any desktop settings, and would
like to retain them, be sure to click the check-box
provided.
Then, select "
Yes
" on the confirmation screen.
If asked if you wish to shut down
communications as well (single-PC systems),
select
Yes
or
No
, as desired.
Attention:
Shutting down communications while a
panel update is in progress is NOT recommended, as
this can leave panel database(s) in an unknown state.
Panel communications are required to:
•
Update the monitoring window (live/real-time);
•
Perform status & control tasks;
•
Monitor guard-tours;
•
Update panel(s) with changes.
Any active communications sessions (set to "stay
connected") will attempt to reconnect automatically, the
next time communications services are started.
Logout or Lockout
To 'log' off, simply select
Logout
on the
toolbar (or open the
File
menu, and select
Logout
).
Tip:
If you changed any desktop settings, and would
like to retain them, be sure to click the check-box
provided.
Then, select
Yes
to 'logout', or
No
to put the
software in 'Lockout' mode. (See the 'Logout /
Lockout' screen descriptions for details.)
To protect against unauthorized access to the
MONITOR AFx Director software, it is always a good
idea to use the logout (or lockout) feature before
leaving your workstation. (For a related topic, see "The
Auto-Lockout Feature", previous.)
Changing Operators
Changing operators is simply a matter of one
operator logging out, and the second operator
logging in. (For details, see previous / above.)
