Filter and manage events

• No registration: The event is not stored in VAKA (not searchable)
• Hidden: The event is stored in VAKA but is not shown in the event log. (searchable)
• Alarm event: Text marked in red in the event log and generates a sum alarm and dialogue box that must be acknowledged.

Activate / deactivate recording of events from a door.

For each door, you can choose whether or not to register events under the Events menu tab.

Delete locally stored events (from 4.18)

Locally stored events can be deleted when necessary.

1. On the Java/PC client, navigate to Settings -> Events -> General.
2. Click on Delete local events.
3. Confirm by clicking on Yes.

Automatic deletion of corrupt event files (from 4.18)

Under certain circumstances, event files can become corrupted and cannot be opened. From VAKA 4.18, there is a feature allowing you to identify and automatically delete these files. A dialogue box tells you when this has happened.

After corrupted files have been deleted, available events are downloaded from the system. Depending on the storage capacity and storage settings, it is possible that old events cannot be downloaded.
