Telepathy - Map Editor
For setting up a typical system, the first place to go to is the Map Editor. But before setting up your Telepathy map client, you should have images of your building(s) and your building floor plans, which you will import. Once imported into Telepathy, these images are linked together to create a representation of your facility. Within the Map Editor Section you then drag into your floor maps, the position of your doors and other hardware which you will be monitoring.
The Map Editor contains a comprehensive library of sensor icons which you can make use of.
Once your sensor icons have been positioned onto your floor maps, you can then associate the icons with the existing access control hardware. You simple enable the hardware in the standard Doors.NET client and then drag the respective door names, input/output names, etc onto the floor maps. You will then be able to easily and accurately monitor your facility in real time.
This section of the help guide explains how to setup a typical system and what steps need to be taken within the 'Map Editor'.
