Security devices of the System (cameras, microphones, sensors, relays) are displayed on the Map as icons (conventional characters, see the figure).

 The graphic icon of the device in the Map shows the current status of the given device.

Red blinking

Grey blinking

Note

This display circuit is not used for all types of security devices of the system. Certain modifications are possible for certain types of devices.

If the object has several states, then the device icon changes in accordance with these states in some time. When the object is marked on the map, then all its states are displayed next to it as minimized icons.

Note

The display of the minimized icons can be disabled at the stage of the system configuration—see Operations with objects in the Map editor utility.

The selected object is framed. You can disable the display of the frame by setting the 1 value to the AlternativeSelect parameter (see Registry keys reference guide).

The layer link icons on the current layer display the status of devices on other layers of the Map.

 

When any security device registers an alarm event on any of the existing layers, the layer link icon starts blinking. The layer link icon continues blinking until the current alarm event ends, and no other alarm events occur on this layer.

Device functions can be accessed via a function menu displayed by right-clicking the icon of the device shown on the Map. Some items of the function menu are common to objects of different types—see Common items in the function menu. The example of the function menu of the Camera object is shown in the figure.

Actions on several devices of the same type can be performed at once. To do this:

  1. Select several object icons, for example, several cameras, by left-clicking and holding the Ctrl key on the keyboard.
  2. Right-click one of the selected icons.
  3. Select an action.

If TouchScreen=1 registry key is set, you can also double-left click an object icon to call the function menu (for more information on the key, see Registry keys reference guide).

A tooltip with the name of the last event received from the object can be displayed above the object's icon (see Configuring the event tooltips). The tooltip size does not depend on the map scale.
