5.2 Display Modes
The Administrator configures how the workstation graphical user interface is normally displayed. If the
Administrator
allows it, the user can toggle between graphics and text display modes from the workstation View
menu. These display modes are described below.
5.2.1 Graphics Mode
In graphics mode, the workstation displays the Intelligent Fire Integrator system
as floor plans, point icons, and
real-time event information in tabular/list form (see
). The Administrator designs and implements the floor
plan that is used when the workstation is in graphics mode.
A floor plan is a drawing or imported file that is the background layer of the workstation screen. It serves as the
primary source for visual feedback for the location of an off-normal event in the system. It serves as a visual
representation of a point’s location in a building. The point types can include fire panels, fire protection points,
security points, and other equipment.
