How to find map properties in WinOLS

The start address and the X, Y and Z axes are what the mapswitch tool uses to find each map.

If you add maps by hand instead of uploading a CSV, each map needs its start address and its axes. Exporting the whole list is covered in how to export a CSV from WinOLS.

  1. 1. Open the map

    Open the map whose address you need to send.
