A video tile is any cell in a multiview display. A camera image can only be shown in one
video tile at a time. The recorder has up to five multiview display formats available
(depending on recorder model) as well as full screen. See Figure 12 below.

Sequencing cameras
The sequencing feature allows a camera to be displayed briefly on screen, before
advancing to the next camera in the sequence list.
The default sequence displays each camera in numerical order. However, each camera
on the main and spot monitors can have a pre-programmed dwell time and sequence
order. See “Changing the camera sequence” on page 37 for more information.
