Professional VMSes aim to be more than simply video managing machines. In particular, larger organizations need to respond to specific alarms (or events) in a timely, organized manner. Because of that, many VMSes have added in capabilities to do so.
In this tutorial, we examine the options for VMSes managing alarms, how they are created, received, handled, acknowledged and searched.

"Managing alarms within VMS systems is still highly debated as many larger, more sophisticated users prefer the greater power and information of managing alarms in access control or PSIM systems."
Not so fast there. There might be a very nice alternative to this in the very near future. If it test out as well as I expect, I will send you the information.
