 The tracking cell snap feature is primarily intended for use with Map tracking cells. Using a snap
setting with group tracking cells may result in undesired snap behavior in the interior of a
building.
 Use architectural features of a building to break the system into meaningful groups. Hallways and
intersections make good boundaries between groups.
 Use Group 0 as a ―stockpile‖ of unassigned Readers. Disable tracking for Group 0 (See ―Group
Properties‖ below), and instead use Groups 1, 2, etc. as your active groups.
 You may find it helpful to display one or more Maps before making Reader group assignments.
See Map Properties below.
2.4.8 Assigning Reader Groups
There are two ways of assigning Reader groups in Visualizer.
1) From the Reader Configuration screen, under the Groups column, type in a comma-separated list
of group numbers for each Reader. If the group does not yet exist, you will be asked if you wish
to create the group.
Figure 2-26: Assigning Reader Groups
2) Open the Group Configuration window from the Settings Menu, and double click on a Reader in
the 2D MapView. This will highlight the Reader in the Member Reader list of the Group
Configuration window. Click the direction arrows to add or remove the Reader from the selected
group.
2.4.9 Group Properties
The Group Configuration window (Settings menu) allows you to set properties of each group. When
setting up the group configuration, you may wish to check the ―Display only this group in the
tracking view‖ box to remove other Readers from the 2D MapView.
