9.2.1 Creating an E-Map File for a Remote Host
With E-Map Editor, you can create E-Maps for your local host, as well as remotely for other hosts.
E-Maps created for remote hosts are saved at the server where they are created and can only be
edited from that server. You have to connect to the E-Maps through the WebCam server to be able to
see the live status of the cameras or I/O devices.
1. Click the Add Host button (No. 3, Figure 9-1) on the toolbar, and select the type of host. A new
host is added in Host View.
2. Right-click the created host, and select Host Settings. This dialog box appears. The dialog box
varies based on the type of host you select.
