Working with Floor Plans in the Telecom Console

This topic discusses opening a floor plan drawing in the Telecom Console and working with its menus. For general information on working the floor plan, see Working with Drawings.

For the other actions you can perform on the floor plan, see these topics:

Display a Floor Plan

To display a floor plan, enter a building and floor in the filter at the top of the left-hand pane. Note that floor plans must be saved as enterprise graphics in SVG format.

Once you display a floor plan, it stays active as you toggle between the Telecom Console's various tabs.

For more information on how completing the filter affects the floor plan, see Using the Telecom Console's Filter.
