\"security<\/p>\n

Viewtron IP security camera systems<\/a> have a master arm \/ disarm function that allows users to turn their security system on \/ off remotely from the mobile app. Watch this video<\/a> to see how this powerful feature is configured on the NVR. Once enabled, the master disarm function is available in the mobile app for iPhone and Android. You can also disarm your system by clicking a button on the NVR.<\/p>\n

Please note that the master disarm function is highly configurable. It does not have to be setup as an all or nothing on \/ off switch for your entire security system. You may configure specific IP cameras and \/ or alarm device to be included. You may also configure the specific function(s) that you want to be disabled when the switch is activated. For example: video surveillance recording, mobile push notifications, alarm lights, alarm sirens, external alarm devices can all be individually included \/ excluded from the master disarm switch.<\/p>\n
