The Map object is used to register and configure the Map interface object in Axxon PSIM, which allows creating and positioning the icons of the installed devices on the map of the protected area and using the icons to operate the devices. The
The settings panel of the Map object is shown in the figure:

№ | Parameter | Method for setting the parameter value | Parameter description | Representation | Default value | Value range |
1 | The Identification number* | Automatically | Displays the identification numberof the Map object in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | Sequence of numbers | NA | From 1 to 2147483647. Depends on the number of the Map objects in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture |
2 | The Name* | Enter the value in the field | Sets the name of the Map object in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | Latin alphabet, Cyrillic, numbers, and service characters | Map | A line containing a sequence of any characters (letters, digits, service characters except > and < characters), case-insensitive. Number of characters—from 1 to 60 |
3 | The Disable | Set the checkbox | Sets the status of the Map object in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the Map object is disabled and isn't used Clear—the Map object is enabled and used |
4 | The Display | Select the value from the list | Sets the Display parent object of the system with distributed architecture to which the given Map object belongs | Name Names of the Display objects registered in the system | Name of the Display parent object. | Depends on the number of the Display objects in the video surveillance system with distributed architecture |
5 | The Search alarmed links recursively | Set the checkbox | Sets the recursive search for the objects on the layers. The recursive search is a search where the transition from one layer, containing an object, to another layer, containing an icon, is performed by successive jumps to the neighboring layers, using sequential links | Boolean type | Clear | Set—a recursive search is enabled Clear—a recursive search is disabled |
| 6 | The Search depth field | Enter the value in the field | Sets the search depth for alarms across map layers if the Map map is multi-layered. This parameter determines how many layers will indicate the alarm. The value can only be entered if the Search alarmed links recursively checkbox is set. | Sequence of numbers | 0 |
|
7 | The Search for the shortest path | Set the checkbox | Enables the search for the shortest path to the alarmed layer. If there are several paths from the active layer to the alarmed layer, then the shortest path is automatically found and selected when the Alarm signal is received (only one icon, that is, the Link to layer,will blink in on the active layer, indicating the shortest path). Works together with the Search alarmed links recursively option only | Boolean type | Clear | Set—search for the shortest path is enabled Clear—search for the shortest path is disabled |
8 | The Over all windows when alarm | Set the checkbox | Displays the window of the Map interface object over all windows of active applications in case only for the currently active map layer if the Alarm signal is received from from any object on this map layer For more details about the Layer object, see The settings panel of the Map interface Layer object | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the window of the Map interface object of the currently active layer is displayed over all active applications in case if the Alarm signal is received from any object on this map layer Clear—the window of the Map interface object of the currently active layer isn't displayed over all active applications in case the if the Alarm signal is received from any object on this map layer |
| 9 | The Show video checkbox | Set the checkbox | Enables the function of live and archive video request from the map for cameras and objects linked with cameras | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the functions to request live and archive video are available in the menu of the Camera objects and objects linked with cameras Clear—the functions to request live and archive video aren't available in the menu of the Camera objects and objects linked with cameras |
| 10 | The Show frame checkbox | Set the checkbox | Enables the function of frame request from the map for cameras and objects linked with cameras | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the function to request archive frame is available in the menu of the Camera objects and objects linked with cameras Clear—the function to request archive frame isn't available in the menu of the Camera objects and objects linked with cameras |

11 | The X field | Enter the value in the field | Sets the X coordinate in the horizontal axis for the upper left corner of the Map objecton the screen | % of the screen width | 50 | From 0 to M*100, where M is the number of the installed monitors |
The Y field | Enter the value in the field | Sets the Y coordinate in the vertical axis for the upper left corner of the Map object on the screen | % of the screen height | 50 | From 0 to M*100, where M is the number of the installed monitors | |
The W field | Enter the value in the field | Sets the width of the Map object window | % of the screen width | 44 | From 0 to M*100, where M is the number of the installed monitors | |
The H field | Enter the value in the field | Sets the height of the Map object window | % of the screen width | 44 | From 0 to M*100, where M is the number of the installed monitors | |
The Autoswitch | Set the checkbox | Sets autoswitch to the Alarm layer source-layer in the Map object | Boolean type | Clear | Set—when the Alarm signal is received from an object, the system will switch to the layer where the object is located Clear—when the Alarm signal is received from an object, the system doesn't switch to the layer where the object is located | |
| The × button | Click the button | Opens a window to set specify the position and size of the map position using a test window | NA | NA | NA | |
| The Over all windows checkbox | Set the checkbox | Allows displaying the Map Map window on top of all windows | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the Map is map is displayed on top of all windows Clear—the Map is map is displayed in standard mode | |
The Monitor | Select the value from the list | Sets the number of the monitor in the system for which the coordinates are specified | Numbers of the monitors in OS | 1 | From 1 to 9 | |
| The Allow moving checkbox | Set the checkbox | Allows moving the Map window map window manually | Boolean type | Clear | Set—allow moving the Map interface window map window manually Clear—disable moving the Map interface window map window manually | |
