4.3.8. GPS Placement
If a NETNode has a GPS unit connected it can report its position which can then be displayed
on the map. Section 6.3 Configuring NETNode for GPS details how to connect GPS to a
Mesh.
1. Ensure you are connected to a NETNode with GPS attached.
2. Ensure the Use GPS check box is checked.
3. The symbol for that node will now snap to the correct location on the map where the
actual NETNode is currently located. If it moves, it will move on the map, showing
heading speed and height.
4.3.9. Upload Map Data
Each of the four map radio buttons can contain a different map. These maps need to be
uploaded before you can use them.
4.3.9.1. Upload Map Image File
To upload a map you‟ll need an internal drive which has been formatted. (Information Tab).
You‟ll also need an image file containing the map for the area you are interested in. The
system supports four file types for maps:
 .JPG
 .PNG
 .GIF
 .BMP
We recommend using JPEG or PNG as they are good quality but small files. Bitmaps on the
other hand are excellent quality but very large. There is a limited amount of memory
available in each NETNode for maps.
1. Click the Upload… button
2. The Upload Map Data dialog opens
3. Click the Browse button and navigate to your image file.
4. Click the Upload File button to place the image in the NETNode‟s flash memory.
