You can toggle the floodlights for a system by opening the settings menu on the live view widget. This can be done on either the web app or the mobile app.
After the selected period of time has elapsed the floodlights will automatically switch off again.
You can also control the strobes from the right hand column on the system status page.
If you have a strobe 'pattern select' wire connected to an Edge Controller, you can also remotely configure the flash pattern of the strobe lights.
This can be done from the Settings tab on the system status page.
The strobe lights must first be switched on before the Change pattern button can be pressed.
Each time the Change pattern button is pressed, the pattern will advance to the next one.
If the Reset button is pressed, the strobe lights will reset to their initial flash pattern. This allows you to remotely configure the same flash pattern on each tower by firstly resetting the pattern and then counting the number of times you press the Change pattern button.
It is not possible to directly set a schedule for the strobe lights. However, it is possible to configure the strobe lights to always be on when the tower is armed and then configure a schedule to arm the tower.
The strobe lights can be configured to be on constantly when the system is in it's default armed state.
The strobe lights can also be configured to trigger when an elevated alarm state is entered.
To do this, chose the length of time for which you want the strobe lights to flash after an alarm level is entered.
It is possible to configure the strobes lights to activate when you are actively 'talking down' to the tower. This will happen regardless of the method of talkdown (phone call, ARC integration etc).
