Prev Next

The Akuvox SmartPlus Cloud supports displaying, filtering, and resolving different types of alarm records.

This guide explains each alarm type and the steps to view and resolve them.

Emergency Alarm

Displays the emergency unlock events triggered by emergencies such as fire.

Arming Alarm

Displays the alarm records uploaded by indoor monitors triggered by security arming/disarming events.

Tamper Alarm

Displays the tamper alarms triggered by someone forcibly removing access devices.

Care Alarm

Displays the fall and bed-exit alarms detected by the Akuvox MR01.

Camera Detection Alarm

Displays alarms triggered by the Akuvox IP camera.

Before You Begin

All alarm records are accessed from the same location in the Akuvox Cloud portal. Complete these two steps once before viewing any alarm type:

  1. Log in to the cloud platform with your property manager account.

  2. In the left sidebar, click Alarm Records. The page opens on the Emergency Alarm tab by default — click the relevant tab to switch alarm types.

Emergency Alarm

Emergency alarms are triggered when an emergency unlock event occurs on an access device, such as a fire emergency that requires immediate door release.

  1. Click the Emergency Alarm tab.

  2. Use the Alarm Time filter and Search button to narrow records by date range.

  3. The results table displays: Alarm Time, Building, Device, and Type.

  4. Click Export Logs to download records for offline review.

Note

Emergency alarms are informational records only. No manual resolution is required — events are automatically logged when triggered.

Arming Alarm

Arming Alarm records security events uploaded by indoor monitors when a resident arms or disarms a security zone. Useful for property managers auditing security activity.

  1. Click the Arming Alarm tab.

  2. Use the Alarm Time filter and Search button to refine records by date and time range.

  3. The results table displays: Alarm Time, Building, Apartment, Device, and Alarm Details.

  4. Click Export Logs to download records for auditing purposes.

Note

Arming alarms do not require manual resolution. If unexpected arming/disarming events are detected, contact the relevant resident for follow-up.

Tamper Alarm

Triggered when someone physically forces or removes an Akuvox access device from its mounting. These alarms require prompt attention as they may indicate a security breach.

Compatible models and versions(or higher):

Tamper alarm upload requires firmware support. Ensure your device is running the minimum version listed below:

  1. Click the Tamper Alarm tab.

  2. Use the Alarm Time filter and Search button to refine records by date range.

  3. The results table displays: Alarm Time, Building, Apartment, and Device affected.

Note

Tamper alarms indicate a potential physical security incident. Promptly inspect the affected device on-site to assess damage and determine whether it needs to be re-secured or replaced.

Care Alarm

Generated by the Akuvox MR01 sensor when a fall or bed-exit event is detected. Unlike other alarm types, Care Alarms have an Unresolved/Resolved status and must be manually resolved by staff after attending to the resident.

  1. Click the Care Alarm tab.

  2. Use the Happened On filter to set a date range, and filter by Building and/or Alarm Type (Fall Alarm or Bed-exit Alarm) to narrow results.

  3. Enter a Device Name and click Search to locate a specific device.

  4. The results table shows: Happened On, Building, APT, Device Name, Alarm Type, Status, Resolve Time, and Action.

  5. After physically attending to the resident, mark the alarm as resolved in the portal by clicking .

    Status updates immediately to Resolved, and the Resolve Time is recorded automatically.

Note

Resolved alarms cannot be reverted to Unresolved. Ensure the situation is fully addressed before resolving. All resolved records remain visible for audit purposes.

Camera Detection Alarm

Triggered when a configured detection event (such as Motion Detection, Line Crossing, Intrusion, and more) fires on an Akuvox IP camera.

You can also reach this page from the Monitoring dashboard by clicking View All on a camera's alarm summary — both paths open the same page.

  1. Click the Camera Detection Alarm tab.

  2. Use the Happened On filter to set a date range, and filter by Building and/or Alarm Type to narrow results.        

  3. The results table displays: Alarm Time, Building, Device, Alarm Type, and Capture & Video.                  

  4. Click the image in the Capture & Video column to view the screenshot, or the recorded video if Video Storage is enabled for that camera.

  5. Click Export Logs to download records. Choose Log only or Log and Capture (includes a screenshot — the first frame of the recorded video if Video Storage is enabled), select a date range, and click Export.

Note

Camera Detection Alarms are informational records only. No manual resolution is required — events are logged automatically when triggered. Unread alarms are marked with a red dot in the results table.
