Map configuration procedure
1.
Create a folder structure (for example, ‘fire graphics’ or ‘intrusion 1
st
floor’).
2.
Insert and name your new maps in the first folder.
3.
Edit the new map.
4.
Define the map size, following the wizard during first edit session.
Note:
Size should be 585W x 300H (in pixels).
5.
Configure a background layer: import CAD or image files.
6.
Define the foreground layers.
7.
Define the depth(s), combining background and foreground layers.
8.
Configure foreground: drag and drop points from the tree on the map.
9.
Save the Map.
The devices deposited on the maps are then associated to an automatically cal-
culated page that is used for the graphical view during event treatment. You can
check this association in the ‘Pages’ extension tabs of each device (close the
map configuration first!).
10.
Proceed with other Maps or other configurations.

formation
on page 5.
Note that, unlike previous MT8001 versions, the maps are fully handled by Com-
poser and do not need to be copied manually. Instead, we will see how the instruc-
tion pages still need a manual handling.
