What is Network Supervision, and how do I set it up?
Network Supervision is a Good Idea. It tells you before anything happens that the server cannot listen to or communicate to a device. All the hardware based LynxNets use it, as do LynxKey, LynxPro, and LynxMessenger software packages. The Zero Footprint Desktop shortcuts don’t, as they don’t ‘ping’ the server every 10 minutes like the other gadgetry. Our wireless panic buttons also support supervision, along with battery low and tamper. If you want to supervise just your machine and the other first responders machines, and ignore the rest, then you should create a separate Alarm group just for first responders. For example, add a new piece of equipment, and call it “Dispatch”. Then add an Alarm channel 000 to that group with a subject such as ‘Security PopUp ‘, and enable alarm 000 to go to any gadgetry that should receive the notice. This is the only alarm channel you will need. Change the LynxMessenger Pop Up S/N (not PCName) on first responders machines to the group name “Dispatch”
