via an external

TIP
You cannot create a link to an object created from within your NetSight Element Manager
map file (as in the process described above); this data will always be embedded. If you
wish to create a linked object, you must first create the object using its native application,
save it as an independent file, then use the process described below and in the following
section to link the object. Note that you must select the link option when you first insert the
object, as you cannot select it once the object has been placed.
