FoR SMartServer 3.3 and prior releases, the LOCATIONS widget is called the Map Widget.

This section consists of the following:

Navigating the Map

Use the Zoom button () to focus the map to the desired geographic area.

Click the  +  button to zoom in, or the  –  button to zoom out.

The Reset Filter button () may be used to reset views to the default settings. 

Setting the Map View

Click the Map View button () to set the map display with one of the following options:

• OpenStreetMap
• Google Streets
• Google Terrain
• Google Hybrid 

Managing Device Clustering

To decluster devices, click the Cluster Radius button () on the Locations widget and use the slider (scale 1-10) to decluster / cluster devices. More devices will appear on the map as the slider number is decreased; devices will appear clustered (grouped) as the slider number is increased.

The color of the device cluster indicates alarm status. See Testing Devices and Managing Datapoints for more information about device state colors.

Showing Device Information

To show the device information, click the Show Device Information button () on the Locations widget and select one of the following options: 

•  – show devices grouped/ungrouped by segment controller
  
  
•  – show device status (provisioned or deprovisioned). The device status information appears on the map. The SmartServer CMS uses colors to differentiate device state. See Testing Devices and Managing Datapoints for more information about device state colors.

Showing Devices by Status

To quickly filter and display devices on the map based on their operating status, click the Show Device Status button () on the Locations widget.

The filter options are as follows:

•  – show devices that are provisioned
  
  
•  – show devices that are deprovisioned
  
  

•  – show provisioned devices that are down
  
  

•  – show provisioned devices that are not communicating (suspect state)
  
  

•  – show devices that are being provisioned (alternating blue/green colors)
  
  
• – show devices with marginal health status indicating that a failure was reported by the device, typically during provisioning (i.e., the device could be reached but it would not provision due to an error unrelated to communication). For drivers that implement marginal state, this device status is available with SmartServer 3.2.
