6.2.5 Managing Multistate Maps
Multistate data points have a descriptive set of state texts for their state IDs. To manage
those state IDs and state texts among many multistate data points, they refer to multistate
maps. Some technologies have a fixed set of such multistate maps others have freely
configurable multistate maps (e.g, user registers). Editing a multistate map affects all
multistate data points, which are using that particular map. It is not necessary to edit each
data point individually.
To Edit a Multistate Map
1. Click on the button in the State Count property of a multistate data point. This
opens the multistate map manager as shown in Figure 83.
Figure 83: Assign multistate maps in the multistate map manager.

fixed and cannot be changed are marked with a lock symbol .
3. If a new multistate map shall be created, change to the Edit tab.
4. Click on the Create button and enter a new multistate map name. Then hit Enter.
5. In the Configure States box enter the desired number of states and click Set.
