Setting up groups

[Emma White]

Do you have a large building, possibly covering several floors?

Then you probably do not want users responding to panic alerts on floors other than their own....

If so did you realise you can set up panic groups? If this is something you want to use follow these instructions:

• First decide how you are going to divide your organisation and assign them a panic group number e.g. Ground floor could be panic group 1 and 1st floor could be panic group 2
• Now go to each LGB
• Rght click on the LGB and select Settings from the menu that appears
• Next to Location group select a group from the drop down list e.g. Group #2
• Uncheck the box Receive alerts from all groups
• Click Done
  

Note: You can elect to receive alerts from all groups by checking the box Receive alerts from all groups regardless of the group this LGB belongs to if necessary. This is ideal for managers who may need to be aware of an incident even if they do not necessarily respond to it.
