3. Within the left-hand column of the Tour menu,
select a monitor number to be programmed. After
highlighting the camera title space for the moni-
tor, select the camera for that monitor from the
camera “pick” list menu (located at the right).
4. To assign a preset position to a camera for this par-
ticular step within the tour, select the Preset box
with the pointer and enter in the assigned preset
number from the keypad. (0 = no preset.)
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each monitor, camera and pre-
set assignment needed to occur during this step of
the tour.
Always set the dwell time long enough for presets
to reach their destinations. If you don’t, the con-
troller could become confused when it tries to per-
form the next function before the preset location
has been reached. This could cause the 8500 to stop
operating.
6. To enter in the dwell time duration for this step in
the tour, select the Dwell time area at the top of
the menu and enter a dwell time value (1-99 sec-
onds) for this step.
7. To name (label) the tour, click on the Label area
(just under the title bar) and enter the desired tour
label with the use of the resulting, on-screen al-
phanumeric keypad.

disabled status of the selected tour. An asterisk in
