Customizing maps pertains to placing
objects on specific maps to enable
visual monitoring, and status/control
features.
Attention: Items added to a specific map
here will appear on that map in every 'view'
that contains it. (To avoid this, you can copy
a map and save it as a new one, or create
new map(s) using the same image file. For
details, see step 1a.)

Screen Reference
This screen shows your selected view with its
associated maps and cameras, along with the
areas and devices that have been placed on
each map (so far).
To select (or search for) a desired 'view', see step 2
(previous/above).
Navigating: You can enlarge (double-click),
and zoom/scroll within maps as desired.
For details on: What the Device Icons mean, and
how to scroll and zoom within a map, refer to:

Status/Control)", previous).
To position objects on a map: Drag the
symbol for your desired item-type (upper

map. When you 'drop' the item in place,
you'll be asked to select the specific area or
device.
Creating a Link to a Camera or Another
Map: The 'link' icon (arrow) allows linking
to a camera or other map, and setting the
location it will appear. When you drop the
link icon in place, a form will appear
showing defined maps and cameras, with a

link, drag the item to the desired location
(or select the item, then the location).
Then, click [OK].
Removing an Item from a Map: Right-click
the item, and select Delete from the pop-up
menu.
Note: If the menu does not include a "Delete"
selection, right-click the item again.
