Programming the Controller Sequence
Program the Controller Sequence if different locations require regular monitoring. The
Sequence is of a collection of 16 events that have been defined for your system's cameras
initiated by the Primary Controller. Each event can be a Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot
that displays for a designated period (1 to 90 seconds).
When the Sequence is running, the Main monitor displays these events in the programmed
order. If suspicious activity is observed, pressing Seq or Clear stops the Controller
Sequence on the displayed camera.
Use the Programming Worksheets (8200-0306-04) to identify the events to include in the
Controller Sequence. List all of the events to be programmed —including the camera
number, Quick View or Pattern number, and duration. Refer to this worksheet while
programming.
Sequence Programming Display
Before programming the sequence, you should understand what information is displayed,
and how the controller is used for programming. Figure 4-1 illustrates the fields appearing
on the LCD; Table 4-1 describes the fields.

Field Description
Evt
Event: 16 slots used to run the actions in the sequence. The event number
determines when the assigned action runs.
Cam
Camera number: Any of the 16 cameras installed with the system.
Act
Action: Quick Views, Patterns, or Fixed Shots for the cameras that run when
the assigned event occurs. If View-- appears in the field, a Fixed Shot is
assigned to the event.
Dur
Duration: The amount of time (1 to 90 seconds) that the event is assigned to
run.
The blinking square on the LCD represents the cursor's location. Move the Tracker Ball
left and right to move the cursor between the fields for the event. Move the
Tracker Ball up
and down to move between events.
Note: When the fields in an event have dashes in them instead of values, the
event is not defined. The Controller Sequence skips the event whenever it runs.
