input or relay. Look at the upper left corner of the map and locate the blue box. This blue box represents the location of the point you
are mapping, and its blue color indicates you are in mapping configuration mode. Use your mouse to drag and drop it where you’d
like it to appear on your map.

Option Description
Map Box Size
(Inputs Only)
The size of the box that represents the input will default to the size and shape
of the text it contains - usually the value of the input followed by the unit of
measure assigned to it. Sometimes, you may like to adjust the size of the box to
fill an area, rather than just be the size of the text. This option allows you to do
that.
By default, the height of the object, as it appears on the map, is approximately
20 pixels, and the width automatically adjusts to the length of the text. If you
wish, use this setting to expand the size of the object to fill a defined area.
Text Direction
(Inputs Only) Decide if you’d like the text on the map for this object (temperature reading,
humidity reading, sensor value, etc.) to be horizontal or vertical.
Map Label (Relays Only) Designate a map label for the relay.
Map Coordinate Fine tune the location of the object on the map.
Graphical Mapping Designate the device’s location on the RIM-1000 graphical map.
Test Map View the mapped location of the point you’re currently configuring.
