Camera name
The camera name simplifies identification of the remote camera location, for
example in the event of an alarm call. It will be shown in the video image if this
facility has been configured (see page 39). Moreover, the camera name is used
by VIDOS, VCS software for managing video surveillance systems, and makes it
easier to identify the camera.
