The Map object is designed used to register and configure the Map interface object in the Intellect system, which allows creating and mapping positioning the symbols icons of the installed devices in the controlled territory and to use the symbols on the map of the protected area and using the icons to operate the devices.

The settings panel of the Map object is shown in the figure.:

Seek shortest path

Is identified by the check mark

Enables the search of the sortest path to the alarmed layer, if several paths from the active layer are available. The path is calculated automatically. Only the Link to Layer with the shortest path will blink in the active layer.

Can be enabled only together with the Seek Alarm Links Recursively checkbox.

6Search depthEnter the value into the field

Sets the search depth for alarms across map layers if the Map is multi-layered. This parameter determines how many layers will indicate the alarm. The value can only be entered if the Search alarmed links recursively checkbox is set.

Sequence of numbersClear

Empty field—search across layers is not limited;

0—related layers are not taken into account during search, that is, in case of alarm, only the layer on which the alarm occurred will blink;

>0—indicates the number of layers through which the search will be performed. For example, the Map has 6 interconnected layers and the alarm appeared on the 3rd layer. If the key value=1, the alarm will blink on layer 3, as well as on layers 2 and 4

7

Search for the shortest path

Set the checkbox

Enables the search for the shortest path to the alarmed layer.

If there are several paths from the active layer to the alarmed layer, then the shortest path is automatically found and selected when the Alarm signal is received (only one icon, that is Link to layer,will blink in the active layer, indicating the shortest path).

Works together with the Search alarmed links recursively option only
