Telepathy - Maps

Telepathy - Maps


Map Screenshot

 

The Maps are from where you monitor your system. They are the combination of building images, floor plans and sensor icons and the Maps section is where you graphically monitor you access control system in real-time. The Maps screen is also where you would receive alerts, (if you have alerts configured).

 

Note: You will not be able to open the Map section until you have: 1) added Map Diagrams, 2) linked the Map Diagrams together, 3) Enabled the hardware and, 4) linked your hardware to your Map Diagrams.

 

As you can see in the image above, the Maps screen has a ribbon bar giving you quick links to other areas of the program (and a link to this help file).

 

Maps Ribbon

 

The main area of the screen will display your map diagrams and, of course, the icons on the floor images will change state when the hardware conditions change, for example: door forced.

 

Door in Alarm State

 

Note: If you are monitoring multiple floors in a building, the software will automatically switch between floor images only if alerts have been setup for the monitored hardware.

You can also right-click on the hardware sensor icons and operate the hardware... for example; right-click on a door icon and you will be able to unlock the door.
