Sequencing cameras
The sequencing feature allows a camera to be displayed briefly on screen, before
advancing to the next camera in the sequence list. Sequencing can only be done in
single-view display mode.
The default sequence displays each camera in numerical order. However, each camera
on the main and event monitors can have a pre-programmed dwell time and sequence
order. See “Layout” on page 54 for more information.
Note: Dwell time must not be set to zero for sequencing to function.
Sequencing cameras using the front panel:
Select the camera where you want to start sequencing. Press the button on the
front panel to start sequencing. Press it again to stop sequencing.
Sequencing cameras using the mouse:
Select the camera where you want to start sequencing. Right-click the mouse and
select Start Sequence to start the sequencing. Right-click again and select Stop
Sequence to stop sequencing.
