Centrix R76 Release Notes
New alarm management
This release completes the HTML5 transition of the existing Alarms page.
Previously, Centrix provided a single Alarms page that was used for both managing/editing alarms and reporting the status of alarms. These two functions have now been separated into Alarm Status and Alarm Management. This was done to provide more natural sorting, filtering and workflows for dealing with alarms in real-time ("front line"), and separate functions tailored more to the management/configuration of the alarms ("back office").
New features include;
- Alarms can now be filtered by severity
- Analogue level alarms can now be created in bulk
- Digital state change alarms can now be created in bulk
- Paged alarm listing, much improved load time
- Support for mobile browsers

See the Alarm Management section in the User Guide for full details on using this feature.
Capture browser
The Capture Browser page, Menu → Inspect → Captures, has been converted to HTML and will now work on mobile browsers.
Further reading
Please see Captures in the User Guide for more information.
The original Capture Browser page can now be found at Menu → Inspect → Captures (Legacy) but will be removed in a future release.
Forgot username & password functionality
The functionality to recover a forgotten username or reset a password has now been added. See the documentation in the Login & Change Password past of the user guide for more information.
New look and feel for list views
The list view layout has been altered to make it more consistent across pages and also allow more actions to be triggered directly from the list. for example the sites view below allows direct navigation to captures, channels and playback.
