8.1.3 Creating an E-Map for a Remote Host
With E-Map Editor, you can create E-Maps for remote hosts in addition to your local host
(GV-VMS). Through the Remote E-Map function, these E-Maps can be accessed and
monitored through a Web browser. For how to remotely access E-Maps, see Accessing
E-Maps of Multiple Hosts later in this chapter.
Note: The supported hosts for E-Map include GV-System, GV-VMS, GV-IP Devices,
GV-Video Server and GV-Compact DVR.
1. Click the Add Host button 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.

3. Type the location name, IP address, the number of cameras, I/O modules, inputs,
outputs installed at the remote host and port information, and then click OK.
4. Follow the instructions in Creating an E-Map earlier in this chapter to create an E-Map
file for the remote host. Note you need to drag and drop the icons under the remote host
to the map on the Floor Plan.
