The external map server corresponds to the source from which the Intellect Map layer receives images for the layer substrate.

Configure the external map server as follows:

1. Create the Map server object under the Computer object on the Hardware tab of the System settings dialog box (1).
   
2. In the Tile Server field, enter a link to an external map (2). By default, a link to the free OpenStreetMap map is set: http://tile.openstreetmap.org
   
3. Click Apply (3).

Later select this map server as the background when creating a Map Layer – see Creating the layers of the interactive map.

The external map server configuration is completed.
