In addition to cameras, the map can display sensors and relays attached to the alarm inputs and outputs of cameras.
The state of the sensors and relays indicates with its color: red — off, green — on.
When the scale of the map is changing, cameras, sensors, relays, and objects on the map can be clustered into the group markers.
Elements of the same type located close to each other on the map are grouping into one marker with the number of grouped elements and their type: camera, sensor, relay, or object.
Elements of different types are grouping into one marker with the number of devices.
Note
If the number of grouped elements is more than 99, the number on the marker will be displayed as 99+.
Objects
This tab displays the objects tree. An object is an area on the map that can be used to navigate to the Plans view.
If any plans are attached to the object, the tooltip with a list of attached plans will be displayed when hovering the cursor over the object.

To go to the Plans section, select the object and click the Switch to plans button.
Clicking this button will display a tree of plans attached to the object.
The header of the window displays the name of the object from which the window was switched to the Plans section and the Back arrow to go back to the Maps section.

This tab displays alarms from all cameras.
In addition to the alarm indicators, the cameras on the map may also have indicators of a broken or missing connection with the camera.
Alarms are indicated with a red square, broken or missing connection with a yellow triangle. When placing the cursor on the alarm indicator, the event that caused it will be shown.
Note
When the connection with the camera is broken, the alarm indicator will be hidden. When the connection is restored and the alarm has not been acknowledged yet, the alarm indicator will be displayed again.
These indicators can also be displayed on plans and objects:
On a plan
On the object
Grouped camera markers also have alarm indicators. If the group contains cameras with an alarm and cameras with a broken or missing connection, both indicators will be displayed.
