The events will be displayed as a single list without grouping.

Viewing events on the map

To view where an event occurred:
1. Select the event in the list
2. The location where the event was recorded will be highlighted on the map with a colored marker. The marker color matches the color indicator shown next to the event in the list.
To view event details, click the marker on the map.
The information pop-up displays:
  • the event date and time
  • the monitored object
  • the event name and description
  • additional information, if available
To close the pop-up, click the × in its upper-right corner or select another marker.
If several events are located close together, they are grouped into a single marker displaying a number. The number indicates how many events are located in that area.
Zoom in on the map to display the individual event markers.
Some events do not contain location coordinates. In this case, no marker is displayed on the map. For example, this may apply to certain maintenance reminders. However, the event remains available in the list and can still be viewed.
To display all found events on the map, click in the upper-right corner of the Events panel.

2. Click the color indicator next to its name

The selected color is applied immediately to that event type in both the event list and on the map.
