Report Setup

The Matrix Interactive Report Setup page allows users to customize the layout and information provided within the Matrix Interactive alarm report sent from History or Monitoring. See the Video Alarm Timeline documentation for more information on sending reports.

Users can customize report layouts by Dealer, Subscriber, or default. The following documentation instructs users on categorizing and setting up report layouts using the available options.

Account Setup #

Prior to editing the report layout and included information, users are prompted to select either a Dealer or Subscriber account to update.

Selecting a Dealer account will update the report layout for all reports sent from accounts assigned to that dealer.

Selecting a single Account Number will update the report layout for reports sent from that subscriber account only.

If neither a dealer nor subscriber is selected, users will be updating the default layout sent system-wide to accounts that do not have a custom report layout configured.
