Alarm Queue Map
The Alarm map is shown on the Alarm Queue screen, and shows the location of all Alarms in the current filter.
Alarm Location Detection 
SureView will automatically detect the location of each incoming alarm to display on the map. The location is taken from one of the following properties (in priority order, from most specific to most general)
-
Location included with the alarm
If the actual alarm data contains location data (such as an alarm contain latitude,longitude values in the data) this will be used to plot the pin.
-
Plotted Alarm Point
If the individual alarm point has been manually plotted using the "Map Setup" then this location will be used.
-
Area Location
The location of the Area that the alarm is associated with (based on the location configured in Area Setup)
The Map will automatically zoom to the location of any new incoming alarms.
