General settings (iPhone)

The following general settings for the current site are available in the SPC Connect app:

Delayed Arming

Enable to use an exit time to delay arming, giving people on site time to exit the building. If Delayed Arming is not enabled, arming of the system is immediate. This option applies to arming of the full system and of individual areas.

Show Isolates

Enable to show isolated zones in the zones list. See The Zones screen (iPhone) for more information.

Hide non-alarm Zones

Some systems may be configured with zone types that are not part of the ‘security’ of the system. (For example, tech type zones.) Enable this option to show only zones that affect site security in the zones list. See The Zones screen (iPhone) for more information.

Show IDs

Enable to show the internal ID number of the device or element for each area, zone, door and output. This is useful from a technical perspective.

Show info for last set/unset event

Enable to show details of the last fullset/unset for each area on the Site Summary screen. If this option is enabled, then the following details are shown for each area: whether the last action was a set or an unset; the name of the user that performed the set/unset; the date and time of the set/unset.

Enable user notifications

If your panel is managed by an installer/management company, enable this option to receive system user notifications from your installer.

If you disable system user notifications, you will not receive general, offer, or warning notifications sent by your installation company using SPC Connect.

You will continue to receive any configured push notifications for panel events, and your installation company may still contact you via email outside of SPC Connect.

Show Demo Site

Enable to show the demo site in the app.

Reset Demo Site

This option only appears if Show Demo Site is enabled.

Tap to reset the demo site if you have made changes while exploring the app.

The settings on this screen apply for all sites viewed through the app.

Maps settings (iPhone)

On the Maps Settings screen, toggle on/off the items to show on the Maps screen. See The Maps screen (iPhone) for more information.

The settings on this screen apply for all sites viewed through the app.
