DMS8000 maps - general procedure
In the Composer project, Maps are located in
Supervisor System Settings > MM8000 / MT8001 System > Logical Configuration
> Graphic Maps
Note: Add folders and sub-folders to organize a large number of maps.
When editing a map, a graphic editor containing all the required tools is launched.
For details on using the graphical editor, see Using the graphical editor [➙ 38].
You configure maps following the general procedure below:
1. Create a folder structure (for example, "fire graphics" or "intrusion maps").
2. Create a new map [➙ 12].
3. Follow the wizard during the first edit session to define the map size [➙ 12].
4. Configure [➙ 39] a background layer importing [➙ 13] CAD, image files, or
drawings of your own.
5. Define the foreground layer(s) [➙ 13].
6. Define the first depth [➙ 15], combining background and foreground layers.
7. Configure the foreground [➙ 17] by doing the following:
- Drag and drop the points from the Composer tree into the appropriate
graphical maps.
- Drag and drop sequence command points from the Composer tree into the
appropriate graphic maps.
8. If video applications are used, define the camera view areas [➙ 20].
9. Modify object properties [➙ 23], if desired.
10. Manually define pages [➙ 31] in the graphic tool, if required, and associate.
- Associate the manual pages to individual points [➙ 33].
11. Save the map [➙ 35] and proceed with other maps or other configurations.
12. Test the map [➙ 36].
Note: To configure a default graphic or text page to display during runtime for all
points that have no map associated with them, see Creating default map pages
[➙ 36].
Automatic association of maps to the points
A point on a map is automatically associated to that graphical map. In other words,
it is associated to the page created with the map's depth that contains the point.
You can verify this association by selecting the point in the tree and then displaying
the tabs named in:
MM8000: Event Treatment Pages and Plant Browser Pages.

MT8001: Pages.
