Preset memory data is not included in “RPMEM” .
Therefore, when a different remote camera than the one when
SAVE was executed is connected, just loading “RPMEM” to the
unit will not result in the start position being recalled when the
tracing memory is recalled .
When replacing a remote camera, also execute SAVE and LOAD
of “CAM” .
