The floor name is an alphanumeric string up to 64 characters in length.

If you have imported a floor map, a very small image of the floor map is shown. Click
Preview to enlarge the map. (If you did not import a floor map, the Preview button is
not displayed.)
If you have an existing floor map, import the map into the RF planning tool by clicking
Browse and navigating to the location where you have stored the map. Follow the
directions of your browser to import the map.
Note 1. Background images must be JPEG format and cannot exceed 2048 x 2048
pixels in size. If you attempt to import a file with a larger pixel footprint, the image will
not scale to fit the image area in the floor display area.
Note 2. Images are scaled (stretched) to fit the display area. The display area aspect
ratio is determined by the floor dimensions.
Note 3. The internal flash memory of the wireless controller supports up to 3 floor
maps. If you want to define additional floors, use external USB storage (see
External Storage on page 107).
Note 4. Because background images for your floors are embedded in the XML file
that defines your building, minimize the file size of the JPEGs that you use for your
backgrounds. You can minimize the file size by selecting maximum compression
(lowest quality) in most graphics programs.
