Creating the site map
The FiberPatrol IDS software can display alarms on a graphical site map created from a satellite
image. The map is created with the IDS Map Manager software, and is imported into the
FiberPatrol IDS software. An internet connection is required to download a satellite image of the
site. Begin by installing the IDS Map Manager software on the configuration computer.
