When the Position number (between 001 and 250) is accepted a new display will allow
the Position Title to be stored, as follows:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M :
N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z /
a b c d e f g h I j k l m -
n o p q r s t u v w x y z ,
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 * = +

The title choice is made as usual with the cursor and accepted when ready (which will
store the chosen Title with the stored Position), cleared for a different choice, or exited
(which will store the Position without an associated title). The title appears in the _ _
space as it is compiled, although the _’s are shown here only to indicate where this
happens - they do not appear in reality on the screen.

Store Sequence
. Choosing to program a Sequence
first requires the Sequence
Number to be entered in an identical procedure to selecting a Position (except that the
range must lie between 001 and 100). Once the number has been accepted, a
subsidiary menu is displayed:
Item _ _ _ in sequence _ _ _
P P P D S
Old _ _ _ _ _
New _ _ _ _ _
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Here the entry format follows the now-familiar procedure but the _ _ _ characters have
specific functions. The first three characters
PPP
represent a Position. The fourth
character
D
is the dwell time that the camera must spend stationary at that position, in
two second increments (so 4 indicates a dwell of 8 seconds). The fifth and final
character
S
represents the time, again in two second increments, that the camera must
take to reach the next position in the sequence.
When all five characters are completed and then accepted, the display clears the entry
ready to receive the next ‘data block’, until all entries are complete and the Sequence is
itself stored.
