Map view

Events and alarms listed in the Device events table can be plotted on a map for entries with latitude and longitude coordinates. Latitude and longitude coordinates are derived from service point data. The filters currently applied to the table view also apply to the map.

Tip: By default, the Latitude and Longitude columns are hidden in the table view, but events with latitude and longitude coordinates appear on the map regardless of the table view. For an accurate summary of mappable events, you can add these columns to the table with the Show columns feature, available from the Actions menu ().

The default format is table view. To switch from table view to map view, click Table () in the page header and select Map.
