How To Configure Action / Notification Lists In Device ManageR (VIDEO)
Click Here To View A Larger Video.
This is a step-by-step guide that explains the simple process of creating an 'Action / Notification List' in Device ManageR. Action / Notification Lists define what sequence of events occur is response to Alert conditions. The most common Action is to send an email notification to a defined contact. Other available Actions include Windows Shutdown, Linux Shutdown, Email An Axis Camera Snapshot, Toggle Signal Tower or Relay, and many more. Each Action can be defined to start after a certain period of time and can optionally repeat at regular intervals.
Select the 'Alerts/Tasks' tab. Click on 'Action / Notification List', then 'Add'.

Enter a name for the Action / Notification List in the 'Name' field.

Click the 'Add' button to add an Action / Notification List Item to your Action / Notification List.

Note that most configuration screens in Device ManageR have associated 'Help' files that you can access for additional useful reference information. Access the Help file by clicking on the green '?' .

Click the 'Alert Action:' drop-down menu to select an Action to take when an Alert is triggered (If you do not have any Actions configured, click the 'Add' button to the right of the drop-down menu to create one).

Enter a value, in seconds, for the 'Start the Action after' field to delay the start of the selected Action. The default is 0.

Enter a value, in seconds, for the 'Repeat the Action every' field to configure the Action to repeat at the defined interval. Once selected, the number of times the Action is repeated can be modified. Choose the 'Continuously' radio button to perform the Action until the Alert is cleared, or the 'A maximum of' radio button to limit how many times the Action will be repeated. A number of repetitions is required, in the field to the right of the radio button. The default is 1.

Click the 'Clear Action:' drop-down menu to select an Action to take when the Alert clears or returns to normal (If you do not have any Actions configured, click the 'Add' button to the right of the combo box to create one).

Click the 'Save' button to save your 'Action / Notification List Item' to your 'Action / Notification List'.

Click the 'Save' button again to save the 'Action / Notification List'.
