A camera or cameras in a group/server/domain are added to the map. If a camera has Latitude, Longitude, and Azimuth specified (see Camera), the camera icon is automatically positioned on the map according to the specified coordinates. If coordinates are not specified, the camera icon is automatically added to the center of the visible map area.

Note
titleAttention!
  • If the values of the Longitude and Latitude settings are 0, the Azimuth value isn't taken into account when you add the camera to the map.
  • Azimuth is measured in degrees from north clockwise, where:
    • 0 degrees indicates the field of view is facing north (up).
    • 90 degrees indicates east (right).
  • If the camera has an embedded GPS tracker, the camera location on the map changes automatically based on the received data.
  • If you change the settings of the camera's coordinates, you must delete the camera from the map and re-add it for the new coordinates to take effect.
