Alarm and Activity Monitoring through 
the Guardall Director System 
When the Guardall Director system is 
connected with specific panel(s), all events 
and alarms are transmitted for display in the 
monitoring window, allowing the tracking of 
guard tours, and to allow for various types of 
report generation. 
Dial up panels with dedicated external modems (one 
panel per modem) can be set to automatically dial-in to 
the Guardall Director system to transmit alarms or 
blocks of activity messages. In other configurations, the 
alarms and events are transmitted when a connection is 
made with the specific panel(s)—either manually, or at 
scheduled times. 
Real-time monitoring (immediate reporting) through 
Guardall Director requires that the software remain
connected with the specific panel(s). 
Multi-Account Systems
: The monitoring window is 
activated for a specific account when you double-click 
the account (under [Account Folders] in the tree). 
For details on activating a panel connection, and the 
"Stay Connected" setting, refer to "Panel 
Communications and Updates". 
To set a dial-up panel to automatically transfer alarms 
or blocks of activity messages, refer to the configuration 
topic: "Monitoring, Paging, & Remote Mgt. Settings". 
Sites Monitored through a Central-
Monitoring Station 
Sites can additionally be monitored through a 
dedicated central-monitoring facility. In this 
case, you can set whether only the 'alarms' or 
all activity is to be transmitted—on an area-by-
area basis. As well, individual sensors (input 
points) and monitored panel conditions 
(equipment / pseudo-points) can be set as to 
the area arming states for which each 
condition will be reported to the central-station 
(On, Stay, and/or Off).
