If the Map is multilayered, you must switch between the layers. Switching between the map layers is performed in one of the following ways:

  1. Using the links between layers.
  2. Using the Map function menu.

Auto switching between the Map layers is also supported. If auto switching is enabled, the program automatically switches to the Map layer where one of the devices has registered an alarm. For instance, if the Map window displays the A layer and at this point of time an alarm is registered on the B layer, the program will automatically switch to the B layer and show it in the window. In this case, a window displaying the Map may be shown over all other windows. Auto switching between the Map layers is configured and enabled during the Program configuration.

To switch between the map layers, create the special links between the Map layers during the Program configuration.

To switch between the Map layers, use the appropriate or icon.


Each layer of the Map may have an indefinite number of link icons referring to any layer existing on the Map. A link icon to the previous layer can also be added.

To switch to another Map layer, left-click the icon corresponding to the required layer.

Moreover, the recursive search for alarm links on the Map is also supported. If this feature is enabled, devices which have registered an alarm, are searched for automatically across all Map layers. For instance, there are three layers, where layer 1 is linked to layer 2, and layer 2 is linked to layer 3. If the Recursive alarming links search option is enabled, a layer 3 link icon on layer 2 and also a layer 2 link icon on layer 1 will start blinking as soon as an alarm is registered on layer 3. Otherwise, if Recursive alarming links search is disabled, only a layer 3 link icon on layer 2 will be blinking. The Recursive alarm links search option is enabled during the Program configuration.

Note

If additional alarm indication on the layer is configured using the special alarm icon, then the icon will be changed to the icon specified in the settings and it will blink when detecting an alarm (see Linking the layers of the interactive map).

Switching between the Map layers using the function menu

To switch between the map layers using the function menu, right-click the map area free from the object icons.

In the opened function menu, select the Layers item and specify the layer to switch to. If Map layers were grouped into folders in the objects tree at the system configuration stage, then at first select the corresponding folder and then the required layer.


This way of switching between the map layers does not require the previous settings and allows switching between the current layer to any other layer permitted to the user by rights.
