5.10.1	Default Caption
	The default caption is a caption that is always visible on the video output when captions are
	switched on. It is most commonly used to indicate the name of the position or number of the
	unit.

5.10.2	Preset Captions
	There is a separate caption available for each individual preset, which is called up as the
	camera is sent to a given position. The caption is removed once the camera is moved from this
	position. These can be used to indicate specifically what the camera is seeing, at each preset
	position. Entering “- -”, into the preset caption inserts the current preset number. For
	example, if the caption “PRESET - -”, was saved to all 64 presets, preset 10 would show
	“PRESET 10", and preset 45 would show “PRESET 45", etc.

5.10.3	Sector Captions
	If Sector Captions are enabled, the captions for the presets can be set to display within given
	pan regions around the 360. One complete revolution is separated into 64 segments, each of
	which can be set to call different preset captions between 1 and 64. This enables the user to
	set names for streets etc. These captions are updated continually as the camera is panned.
	These can be set up as a different caption for each sector or can be grouped, so that 0 to 180
	degrees shows “NORTH CARPARK” and 180 to 360 degrees shows “SOUTH CARPARK.”

5.10.4Setting Captions

The captions submenu allows the setting of the default caption, and the preset or sector captions as well as the associated options. The main page contains settings that relate to all three (3) caption modes such as position and color, and determine if captions are used and if so which ones. The vertical position selects a line from 0 to 10 (0 at the top of the screen and 10 at the bottom).

The last two options open further submenus. The first opens the page allowing set up of the default/normal caption for the camera. The second opens either Preset Captions or Sector Captions, dependent on the state of Caption Mode.

The Normal Caption screen allows the input of a 20 character string, and then the options to save or blank the current caption. This submenu can be exited by sending a left command (nothing will be saved or cleared). To change the caption, select the line with right, highlighting it green and making the first character flash, and then scroll through the available characters using up and down. Once the first letter is set, use left and right to move along the
