To import AutoCAD blocks as map objects, you must first enable the AutoCAD block import feature.
Before you begin
What you should know
If you synchronize an AutoCAD block definition with a Security Center entity type, you can import the block instances as map objects during the map creation process, or after the map is created.
To import an AutoCAD block instance, the block instance name must
match an existing Security Center entity name. To
import AutoCAD blocks to a geographic map, the block definition must have latitude and
longitude attributes.
IMPORTANT: To import door readers, the block instance name
must follow the format "DoorName (DoorSide)", where DoorName is the name of the
door entity, and DoorSide is the name of the door side where the reader is
installed. Door sides are named "In" and "Out" by default in the
Hardware page of the door.
