   Note
   title Attention!
   When you set a point on the video, the following rules must be met: All connection points must lie on the same horizontal plane. We recommend placing the points on the floor or on the ground. We don't recommend placing three points in a straight line. The points must demonstrate the perspective of the plane. When you set the sixth point, it is possible that the second connection point cannot be placed in certain locations. This happens because the system cannot determine the correct viewing angle to display the video and the map with the set connection points. Most likely, you set the connection points incorrectly.

4. If calibration is available, the Apply calibration Image Modified button appears after you add a sixth point (or more), allowing you to calibrate the connection points on the map.
