Editing Maps
The map that is displayed on the monitoring screen enables the allocation of camera server, camera, external
device and motion detection (for VB150 only) icons and the background picture to be edited. These can be edited
with Map Editor. Map editing is not something that needs to be done when the monitoring screen is created; it can
be done when necessary.
