ADDING MAPS

STEP 1. Click on the Map Conﬁg button.

STEP 2. Right click on the Map icon and

select Add Map.

STEP 3. Locate the map ﬁle you have

created in the normal manner by selecting

the Browse button. You will also have the

opportunity to name this map to a descriptive

or location name. This name can only

have letters or numbers and no spaces or

symbols.

You can add other maps at this time or

proceed to conﬁguring your map. If you wish

to add other locations merely click on the

Map icon again and repeat the procedure.

If you wish to add a sub-map - showing a

smaller section, for instance - right click on

the larger scale “parent” map and add the

new map as normal.

Deleting a Map

Right-clicking on a map’s icon will give you the option to delete it from the list.

IMPORTANT! Deleting a map will delete all sub-maps associated with that

map.

Changing Map Names

Right-clicking on a map’s icon also allows you the option of changing the name of the map

(“node”) should you so desire.

MAP CONFIGURATION

You must have Map Conﬁg selected in addition to the map you want to conﬁgure. Click and

drag cameras from those available on the left side of the screen to their approximate locations

on the map. It is also important to ensure that the E-Map button is checked in the Local

Alarm Conﬁg window (See Section 4.2).

IMPORTANT! Cameras can not be placed on more than one map.

Hovering the mouse over a camera’s icon on the map will reveal its name.

You also have the ability to change the

camera’s icon which can help you quickly

identify the type of camera - such as a

PTZ unit - which has more features than a

standard camera.
